Cosy and well located

It's a very cosy neighbourhood where everyone knows each other, you're quickly in the city but you can also walk out of the street and be in the forest. A playground and schools are also nearby. The only downside is the always overflowing dog poop bag bin and the rubbish in the bushes.
