Outdoor:
Due to the cold weather in Forest Park, we are unable to make significant upgrades to the outdoor space until spring, as we finalized the purchase of the house at the end of November. However, guests can still enjoy the outdoors from the back porch deck, offering a peaceful spot to soak in the sights and sounds of Forest Park. The fenced-in backyard is an attractive feature, providing a safe and relaxing area for both play and leisure. We’ve also added a lower level of deck with plans to install a gazebo when the weather permits, enhancing the outdoor experience in the warmer months.
