INDING JUST THE RIGHT HOUSE was a combination of luck and perseverance for the Hadlers. “I would [call] the house an urban farmhouse, or modern farmhouse,” Ilene says, “[but] we sometimes call it ‘the unicorn house’ because [homes] like this just don’t exist in Trinity Park.” Ilene and husband, Jim, would know. They looked at more than 50 Trinity Park homes before they found and bought this three-story, 2,580-squarefoot house for $495,000 in July 2015.
