One of the joys of being a realtor is getting to work with wonderful clients! Assisting our former neighbor Amy Baird with sale of her beautiful home in Carisbrooke was one of those great partnerships. At each step of the process, from pre-listing preparations to the closing, she was always willing to consider our suggestions.

Be prepared to fall in love with this spectacular custom built home in the popular…
