The roads here are long and unhurried, lined with trees that seem to have been there longer than anyone can remember. Sullivan township spreads across fifteen thousand acres in ways that feel less like development and more like permission—houses sitting on nine-acre lots with room to breathe, to garden, to let the land do what it wants. A park sits about a mile away, and the nearest restaurant and grocery store are a short drive, close enough that you're not isolated but far enough that the township holds onto something quieter, something defined by space rather than convenience.
