This month, we feature Gary and Beth Ellsworth of 14 Furches Street:

“We have been residents of University Park for just over and year and could not be any happier with our decision.  We chose the area for the proximity to everything, the amazing elementary school and the character of all the older homes.  We have become fast friends with many neighbors and love that our kids can walk to school together and there is always someone up for an impromptu weekend cookout.   We love the history in our home, the Raleigh stone fireplace, original hardwoods, beautiful trim work and crystal doorknobs are just a few features that had us hooked from the moment we walked in.  We were fortunate to find a home situated on a double lot and we are enjoying transforming the yard into a cottage garden where our children love to play.”
