Dean...Buying the farm..not the picture !. We flew up from West Palm to look at the property..It's 37 acres 2 acre pond..(I caught..and released a 9lb. bass) Has the original 1896 log barn..now sided with oak. The grandson of the builder visited one day. ..and told me the family history.; We own both sides of the road..and the chimney from the farmhouse built in 1897 is still there. He sent me a photo of his Grandmother standing on the porch of the house about 1902.There is another small pond in the woods where this photo was taken..Our house was built in 1993..and I bought it from the builder. Also has a 70x30 shop..I bought the place in November, and let the owner stay free till the next year..I sold out to my partner..and my wife retired from the Town of Palm Beach and we sold the Florida house. The town is 1,193 people..with a SUPER Walmart !.Moved here permanently in 2006. Quite a change from Palm Beach Co. with 1.2 million people....( I took a picture a couple weeks ago..through the front door glass ..of triplet fawns in the yard..)..Peace and Quiet !!!
