Welcome to the country!.. Where the morning sun shines in through that big front bay window flooding the living room with natural light, you can hear the birds chirping and smell the air's freshness because, well, there isn't a ton of traffic.

Let the kids ride their bikes or play basket ball around the flat neighbourhood. Have crackling fires in the rec room all Winter long and then around the outdoor pit in Spring and Fall.

Enjoy the huge covered deck even in the rain. Plant up the giant garden just like an artist painting on an awaiting canvas. And fill that chicken coop with some girls who will provide you with the freshest eggs of your life.

She loves to drink Earl Grey and Chardonnay. Each of her chickens answer to their first name and the neighbours have surrendered… she definitely grows the best strawberries and garlic around. Be sure to call before you visit, she’s a bit of a nudist, but why would you have tan lines when you live in such a private location surrounded by nature?

SHE: is a 1930’s farmhouse located on nearly 6 acres and only 10 minutes from downtown Vernon.
