Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Michael Shaffer
My wife and I moved to this county after we finished our US Navy enlistment. Our jobs took us in opposite directions and this area was a good middle ground. We soon fell in love with our new home and decided to start our family here. We have four children, all teenagers, and have found the area to be a wonderful environment in which raise them. We have spent many hours on field trips to the multiple attractions that this area offers. Steeped in history and loaded with fun things to keep our children engaged, we would definitely choose this location again.
Why they chose this property
The Courthouse area is beautiful, quiet and certainly has a long history. We have owed several properties in this county but this house is special because of its location and charm. The street is relaxing and peaceful, as well as centrally located. Being just a short walk to all that the downtown has to offer, makes this house very versatile. Holly House has character that many of today's homes do not offer. It's cozy yet roomy; as well as bright and cheery.
