house for sale! addendum

The huge house and potential horse property across from us is going to be auctioned in a week's time - and the minimum bid is unbelievably low. If I were not self-employed I would bid on it myself as an annex to November Hill!

If you're looking for a deal on property in NC, would make a terrific neighbor, love animals, do not own ATVs, and want more information, leave me your email in a comment. I'll email info and delete the comment so your info does not go "public."

ADDENDUM:

Today when I went out to get the mail, I noticed the for sale sign had gone back up across the lane, and there was a flyer box added, which hadn't been there before. So I went over and took a brochure. When I did that, I saw two trucks in the driveway and decided I'd walk over and get some more info - an out of state friend had contacted me about the property and I figured I'd get the scoop.

It wasn't the realtor who was there, but prospective buyers and an inspector, and I introduced myself and found that the family looking are horse people, and this house and property is one they've been looking at for several months. I was totally moved to hear the woman describing her first look at the house, from the driveway, and so identified with her feeling that "this is home."

It's their dream, and this house, imo, has been waiting for someone to drive up, fall in love, and move in to make that dream happen.

From everything I heard and saw today, these folks would make incredible neighbors, and I love the idea of their "dream-making" energy moving in over there.

Send some good vibes their way. I love seeing magic happen.

  1. Billie, I have advised the Woman that if the sale falls through I wish to live across from you.

  2. Sheaffer, if you moved in across the lane that would result in the biggest blog posting celebration/extravaganza you can imagine! I am holding my breath and crossing my fingers.
