We love our floorplan — we love the guest room for out-of-town family, and I love that my children’s rooms are close to mine so I feel safe. I love that we have enough space for everything.

Our homebuying process was really easy. We didn’t know anyone when we moved here but we’ve built a home, a family and a life for ourselves in Gladden Farms that we didn’t have where we lived before. It’s been phenomenal.

Gladden Farms is a family place, a great community with lots of parks to walk around in and ride bikes. It's great for the kids. The public pool and splash pad are wonderful things you can do to spend a little time out of your day with them.
