dirt cheap land HIDDEN TREASURE?
My dad found this old abandoned farm for $1,300 an acre all included. But hidden within was a hand hewn Dutch tier frame barn best in 1910 on the brink of collapse. We disassembled and restored every best, poured a foundation tier reassembled it piece by piece. Adding epic windows to capture the Idaho countryside. But while waiting for those windows which were delayed, my older brother John built a three story silo next door. Well actually the 1st Floor was commercial kitchen and the second and third were luxury suites. Then we tackled the old farmhouse next door, stripping away vinyl siding and paneling to reveal its original charm. My mom furnished every corner with period antiques and now we better out on Airbnb. Today, Morning Glory Farm is one of the country's most spectacular wedding venues. And on occasion, my mom and sisters host high teas at the farmhouse with homemade pastries. Plans for a you pick orchard, gardens, and a full farm hospitality experience are underway. For more stories about design, rank, and hospitality, follow along.
