Mr Crumble's Bakery

I had a meeting today with Mr Crumble. He would like to find an old building and convert it into a bakery and cooking school. He is passionate about food and wants to teach others about the joys of baking.
We looked through the inventory of available properties, and found a few old farmhouses that might suit his needs.
One particular house made him do a double take. It is a solid wooden house that has an interesting history.  It was built a long time ago by a family who lived on an apple orchard. After the orchard was closed and the land was sold off to developers, the house was moved here to Oak Leaf Forest. It has been hidden away and vacant for a long time.
Like most of the homes here, it will require renovating. But as Mr Crumble says, he will be able to really customize it for his particular needs.
We signed all the papers, and now Mr Crumble is the new owner of this property. Stay tuned for the renovation project to begin!

Cheerio,
Isabelle

  3. Hi Isabelle! As a Realtor you are really gifted and I do believe that a school/residence to accommodate Mr. Crumbles ambitions to teach the culinary arts is Fantastic! This old farm house looks to be just the right size for both desires. There is no smell on earth as good as that of the aroma of fresh baked bread and I am looking forward to watching this bakery unfold. By the way, how is Mr. Arthur doing with his writer's retreat? I still can't get over the transformation of that cottage he purchased. What a find!!! :))

    1. Thanks Elizabeth. Mr Arthur must be in one of his writing modes as we have not seen him for a while.
