Other?
We purchased this home in 2005 our children were one and two at the time, we have enjoyed some grand moments here and will be very sad to leave, it is very important that we leave it in the hands of some excellent people who will grow and love this very special home in the future. The potential for expansion is great, sadly we are being pulled towards another future and have to leave.
