The view!!!! I had no interest in going to look at a listing for a run-down home down Main St. North in Elliston.......... but then my husband convinced me to 'drive by'. That was it, we took one look at the view and our interests peaked. The house was old, tired and needed a whole lot of love. But the view sold us. When a humpback whale breached in the cove while we were parked in the driveway (all four of us in the truck saw it) it was a done deal.
2 years later, we love it for the view. The beautiful home we've created, the people, The Klondike Trail, Cole's Gulch and the puffins. There is a different pace and it's refreshing.
