    "This neighborhood is one of the best kept secrets of Charlottesville. It is extremely quiet and about as close as you can get to the university. The homes are charming, the people are lovely and all you hear when you wake up in the morning is the sweet song of the birds and the distant chimes of the chapel clock. "
