About the host
Hosted by Cheryl Nelson
I’m Cheryl, a former business professor and C-level healthcare executive who followed my passion and became a plant-based chef. After years in the corporate world, I shifted my focus to creating food that nourishes, comforts, and brings people together. I love what I do, and I’m grateful to share that joy with my guests.
Outside of the kitchen, I enjoy simple, peaceful moments—quiet walks, a great book, or settling in with a good movie. Creating calm, beautiful spaces is important to me, and I’ve designed this home to offer that same sense of peace and comfort to every guest who stays here.
Why they chose this property
I chose this neighborhood because it offers the kind of peace and beauty you can feel the moment you arrive. The tree-lined street leading to the home is stunning in every season—lush and green in summer, full of color in fall, and absolutely breathtaking when the snow settles on the branches in winter.
The house sits on a quiet cul-de-sac, creating a sense of privacy, calm, and safety that’s hard to find anywhere else. It’s truly a place of serenity—somewhere you can unwind, relax, and feel completely at ease. Whether you’re visiting for rest, family time, or a peaceful getaway, this neighborhood sets the perfect tone for a refreshing stay.
What makes this property unique
What makes this property truly unique is the way it brings people together. This spacious 5-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers plenty of room for families and groups to spread out comfortably, yet still stay connected under one roof. With a large dining table perfect for shared meals, and a family room/game room designed for fun and laughter, the home naturally encourages togetherness.
There’s also a charming reading nook tucked inside the laundry room—complete with a cozy chair and lamp—where you can slip away for quiet time with a good book. Whether you’re gathering for holidays, celebrating special moments, or simply enjoying time away, this home is designed for connection, comfort, and memory-making. It’s a place where families and friends can slow down, share meals, play games, relax, and create lasting memories in a warm and welcoming setting.
