Dianne and Dale had lived in the same acreage development for 33 years and loved the neighborhood. A rare opportunity came up with another acreage just up the road with more acres and a home with a walk-out basement. They were going to renovate their existing residence, however this property presented the qualities they were seeking without leaving the neighborhood. Timing was right for an adventure and they were ready to provide an opportunity for a new family to enjoy the home that they had nurtured.
Here’s their story…
