A beautiful neighbourhood where you can easily park inside or outside your garden. There is a playground right outside your door where the children can play, and it's 2 minutes from the beach. The primary school is also 2 minutes from your home, and the neighbourhood is very clean and safe. The only downside is that it's not the most social neighbourhood, so that's the only "letdown" in my opinion. Otherwise, very happy with my neighbourhood and home!
Auto-translated to English by AIMy neighbourhood has a beautiful green grass field where children can play nicely and parents can sit on a bench, nearby there is a small beach so some houses have a view of the water. There is a nice parking spot for both in and out of your garden so you never have to worry about that, and the neighbourhood is full of young and old people so there is never a shortage of children playing outside. Although the neighbourhood is not social with each other, it is still a neighbourhood where you can live peacefully and simply.
