"Family living / sidewalks / space to play"

Stratford Terrace is a very family friendly neighborhood. Our schools are top rated (Butts Road Primary, Butts Road Intermediate, Hickory Middle and High). You can see the bus stop from most homes - I watch my daughter walk to the corner every day. We do not have an HOA - but I have found we don't need one - people take pride in thier homes and yards. You can make this neighborhood as social as you want with BBQs / bunko groups or just get to know the people on your street. Not far from anywhere - you can shop and eat in Greenbrier within 15 minutes. In the summer you are only a 20 minute drive to Sandbridge where the locals goto to the beach. Don't miss out on the local farms too - you are less than 5 minutes away from some great strawberry fields and Bergey's Breadbasket. Alot of the people in this neighborhood are service workers (doctor/nurse/fire fighter/police/teacher/military/etc.) and it shows in the ethics and morals we all share. Word to the wise we are near Fentress Air Field and the planes do fly day and night but it isn't everyday like in Virginia Beach.
