Moving from the city we wanted to be in nature but also have community. We also aren’t super handy or up for DIY renovations outside of interior design projects. Living in a brand new build in a tight-knit neighborhood surrounded by farms and vineyards was the perfect combination of all of the above.
When we first moved we split our time between the city and Milton. Our neighbors treated us like family, always willing to put a package in the garage if we were away and including us in holiday celebrations when we are around. This house has been our sanctuary during a crazy time of life, peaceful, warm and full of so so much life and love.
