      <title><![CDATA[Better than new Construction in Arbor Field of Chaska]]></title>
      <link>http://www.staffordfamilyrealtors.com/listing-details.asp?ListingID=16513</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<img src='http://www.skyetools.net/images/Stafford/listings/id20119-mls4146174-listing16513.jpg' height='100' border='0' style='float:left; margin-right:10px; margin-bottom:10px;' />Welcome to Arbor Field at Clover Field of Chaska.  This crisp & clean, sun-filled townhome was a former model built by Pulte. Offering upgraded finishes throughout, you will enjoy maple cabinetry, enameled millwork & designer paint colors with a private balcony off the kitchen.   

The City of Chaska's mission is to be the "best small town in Minnesota" and many of its residents have chosen Chaska for its small town feel and friendly atmosphere. The City prioritizes projects that promote community gathering and enhance the sense of identity and pride. 
 
Clover Field embraces the traditional look of the older neighborhoods which have always held timeless appeal. This community awakens fond memories of a simpler way of life. Gathering with friends and neighbors on a warm spring day. Sitting on the front porch watching the stars flicker on a summer night. Riding bikes through newly fallen leaves to the corner grocery store or walking to school in the season's first gentle snow. It's a way of life that has been missing in many new subdivisions, but it's the cornerstone of this traditional neighborhood.

Tree-lined boulevards, sidewalks, parks, wetlands and ponds add to the character of the neighborhood. Within walking distance from home is the Southwest Metro Transit station, Clover Ridge Elementary School and local boutiques.
