...and what really strikes you about living out here is how close everything feels without actually being crowded. The condos sit in a walkable stretch where you're near downtown restaurants and galleries, but far enough back that you've actually got breathing room. It's the kind of spot where you can grab a drink at one of the local breweries and still be home in minutes—no endless drive through traffic. The units themselves are modest in footprint, each sitting on around half an acre, which means you're living in something compact and manageable rather than sprawling.
