This spot is ideal for couples and their furry companions seeking a home where they can comfortably work remotely, host guests, and foster connections with neighbors on the private drive. This house is a triplex on a private drive in Haller Lake, a single-family neighborhood. The other tenants in the triplex are long-term, good neighbors. Provides middle-income couples a great long-term place to live long term. The property is more than just a home; it's part of a larger vision for fostering close-knit community within the quiet safety of a single-family neighborhood. Overall, the atmosphere is inclusive, supportive, and helpful. The current triplex neighbors have a relaxed community vibe, joining for the occasional backyard BBQ, picking up mail and packages for everyone, and watching each other’s pets during vacations.

Haller Lake is the hidden gem at the end of the drive, a peaceful lake with trout surrounded by private homes, trees and osprey, perfect for a morning paddle before work or a floaty flotilla on a hot day. Bonnie and Don, the neighbors with the lakefront property at the end of the drive, have always been welcoming of others on the drive using their lawn to access the lake. There is also a little-known public access/mini park area at 125th.
