Why they chose this property
We chose a property in this area because it is a place we love and visit very frequently. From the first moment we saw this cottage we were hooked on its charm and the story we did not know at the time. The idea of owning and restoring a home built so long ago that has held many families and memories was amazing. Ownership of this home comes with responsibility to uphold the past and our desire to share it with others.
What makes this property unique
Historic home, sits on a hillside overlooking a beautiful area, quiet residential area, all new: appliances, furniture, amenities. One block from National Forest land for hiking, watching wildlife and enjoying the quiet.
