Finding an old friend

I found this house over a year ago. I fell madly in love with it and had lots of discussions with the Realtor about it. I did the numbers over and over trying to make it work as a B&B and just couldn't make it work.
I never forgot about her though. Lordy is this a beautiful home and one I could be VERY happy in for the rest of my life.
I only wish I could afford it.
