After four years of enjoying the charms of Highland Park, my husband and I are moving our young family to be closer to grandparents. That means that our lovely home is looking for a new owner. Located a block off of Negley on Avondale Place, it's a 4BR 2BA brick semi-detached home with lots of space. We've spent the last four years creating a serene living space perfect for young families and first-time homebuyers. New bamboo floors, carpet, kitchen cabinets, Andersen windows, ceramic tile, and contemporary wall colors transform this 1920s middle-class abode into an inviting modern residence. For any of you who know someone looking for an affordable home within the neighborhood, please pass this on. We'd like nothing more than to know that someone will enjoy our home and our neighborhood as much as we have! We've listed on ForSaleByOwner.com ( http://www.forsalebyowner.com/listing/F91AB) and are happy to work with individuals or buyer's agents. For more details on the house, feel free to e-mail me at dulcimer.hope(a)gmail.com or call 412.894.1873. Thanks! Dulci Brubaker
