Message to the Future Owner

Dear Future Homeowner,

After 23 incredible years, it is very hard for us to say goodbye to this home. We have truly loved living in Orange, and this house has been at the center of so many of our most meaningful moments.

This is where we raised our two wonderful children, where they grew up surrounded by love, laughter, and a strong sense of home. Over the years, this house has hosted countless cherished memories - birthday parties, baby showers, Christmas celebrations, and endless backyard games with our kids and their friends. It has always been a place where people gather, celebrate, and feel welcome.

The location has been one of the things we appreciated most. With two train stations within walking distance, it made life so convenient - whether it was taking the kids on special outings or enjoying a night out. Access to major highways is also incredibly easy, making commuting simple and stress-free. We’ve also loved having great restaurants nearby and being just two blocks from Orange Park, which has always been perfect for a walk or time outdoors.

What truly makes this place special, though, is the community. Our neighbors have been kind, supportive, and always willing to lend a hand. Over the years, they’ve become an important part of our lives, and we know you will feel just as welcome.

We love this house deeply and will truly miss it. However, as our children have grown and started their own lives, we’ve realized it’s time for us to downsize. While it’s not easy to leave, it brings us comfort knowing that another family will come in and continue creating beautiful memories here.

We hope this home brings you as much joy as it has brought us.

With warmest wishes,
Harold & Dewanna Johnson
