Is there anything in the world that sounds better than finishing work and strolling calmly through a market, sampling the local wares while the sun sets peacefully behind you?

You should know by now that this isn’t simply a hypothetical – for owners of Hawthorne real estate, it’s very much a reality, when on the first Friday of every month the Twilight Markets can be found at Hawthorne Park.
Starting from 4 p.m. the middle of the park is home to a variety of market stalls, selling anything from vintage crafts and jewellery to fresh produce and gourmet food. And when the clock strikes 8:30 p.m., the market packs up just as it’s gotten to the cusp of evening and leaves until next month.
