I can't wait to return to Two Holt and take pictures of the new land. But until then I will share the realtor's picture which doesn't really show the lot itself--it shows the view from the lot.
Remember when I shared here about our problems trying to build with the steep watershed restrictions in our Mirror Lake area? One of our options was to purchase the lot behind us that had been inherited by two elderly brothers and just recently put on the market to add to our footprint. But they wanted entirely too much for that lot. Tamara, a friend of ours, suggested, "Go walk around the other guy's property seven times...think Joshua and Jericho." Well, guess what? We made that offer and after a bit of discussion it was accepted. I was quite shocked! It appears the new owners had no connection to Highlands and just wanted to sell it quickly. So Two Holt will soon boundary Hickory Hill Road and Wyanoak Road, the road behind it. Yes, we're still restricted to building on and/or covering 12% of our land, but now we can build the exact addition we want and a driveway up to it and we don't have to destroy the existing driveway and parking area. And owning the lot ensures no one will ever build behind Two Holt--so we will continue to enjoy the privacy and quiet solitude. I can't wait to return to Two Holt and take pictures of the new land. But until then I will share the realtor's picture which doesn't really show the lot itself--it shows the view from the lot. So the next couple of weeks will bring a flurry of activity in closing this land deal. I surely am missing our little cottage, but I probably won't be able to return to Two Holt until the end of May.
