Mine was fancier because it was built as a home by a Bellevue doctor whose wife did not want to live there, adter all. It was operated as a religious retreat house for a while, and then we bought it. We put it back into tip top shape and had to sell to take a job in another state.

My husband’s company bought it and eventually sold it to 2 unrelated people who planned to subdivide the land. That did not work out, and the state swooped in and paid more than $100,000 than we got when we sold. The state wanted it because of the dee restriction on access to that 1000 acres of state forest land behind us. They tried (first) every which way to prove that we did not own the land at the gate, but they couldn’t change the boundaries enough to give them free access. By just buying the house, that whole argument became moot.
