    "Over the 15 years we've lived here the neighborhood has significantly changed. Of course the changes in Austin over that time are pretty drastic and significant as well. We love this place, it's like a little bit of country in the City. Especially pulling into our small neighborhood on Pecan Springs from the 51st Street side before it doglegs up to Springdale. The amount of work we've put into our home and the landscaping has made it difficult coming to terms with leaving. Have to look at the bright side; change is good."
