    "Hope Valley is a beautiful historic neighborhood nestled around a private country club golf course. It's a supportive community and warm and welcoming. There are lots of families with young children and you often see them walking and biking throughout the neighborhood. The yards and homes are well maintained bc home owners take pride in their properties, the HOA is voluntary. Able to walk to Bull and Bean, Only Burger, the Post Office and frozen yogurt and hair salon. The public library and another shopping center anchored by Harris Teeter and CVS is a 3-minute drive outside the HV gates."
