PICK ME! Seriously. I've been waiting for you! The current owners are the BEST kind of sellers! They've taken exceptional care of this home, kept it updated, maintained the grounds, and made sure everything works as it should. And yet, somehow, this house has fallen out of contract twice—and neither time was because of the house. The first buyer's financing fell apart the day before closing. The second had to walk away for health reasons. So life has gotten in the way twice. The house? It's still here. Still beautifully maintained. Still offering long-range mountain views, easy main-level living, a sunroom, wraparound porches, a stone fireplace, three bedrooms, three baths, a bonus room, a second living area, a two-car garage, and a long list of meaningful updates. The sellers are ready. We're ready. Now we need the right buyer. Could it be you!?
