Into the woods...

Nenonen "social distance heaven" came in the form of a rustic 125 old log cabin tucked away on 265 acres of private land this week.  We traded masks and bleach wipes for ATV rides in the walnut groves, fields of wildflowers, hikes beneath the mighty pines, dips in the spring-fed lake, bonfire fun, architectural goodies...

 

 ...and true solitude that only unplugged nature can provide from the challenges of 2020. 

Nature heals, at least for the Nenonens. A perfect life pause to enjoy one another and the tail end of Summer before it is back to school. ❤️

CLOSED: 14362 Spyglass in Chesterfield

Happy day, hello Friday...

Gorgeous Spyglass closed escrow today and the fabulous N duo gets to call Florida their permanent new residence! I assist a lot of people in cross-country relocations, both in and out of St. Louis, but rarely do I have the pleasure of seeing where they go.

Well, the sweet N Family allowed us to stay at their Florida vacation home a couple of years ago, now their primary residence, and this was a day-in-the-life...





*sigh* 

I fully subscribe to the notion of sky above, sand below, peace within... and their final destination is beyond dreamy. 🌴👙🌞

D and T- thank you so much for your trust, faith, and diligence.  I appreciate you both so-very-much and I wish you a lovely retirement down South complete with sandy toes, balmy sea breezes, sun-kissed skin, and margarita toasts.  Congratulations and thank you, friends.

In St. Louis and throwing around a move?  Have questions about COVID-19's impact on the housing market and the safest way to navigate it?  Let's connect!  The market is swift, the industry has shifted significantly to meet demand while keeping people safe, and I am here to help guide you through it...  

Snuck away to Innsbrook...

The final "back to school" countdown has started here in Casa de Nenonen, as our oldest prepares for his Junior year in college and our youngest ventures in to his Senior year in high school.  As a final "shebang", we slipped out in to the wilderness for a few days where the WiFi was spotty, but the memories were plentiful!   

A teeny-tiny peek at the fun...

A long weekend in Innsbrook...

We grabbed an AirBnb and slipped outside of the city limits to a cozy little a-frame chalet in Innsbrook for a few days of summer “fun in the sun”, before the boys go back to school.  A quick peek at the fun...

If you have never been to Innsbrook and seek a little nature refuge, sites like AirBnb offer terrific weekend getaways without the commitment of buying in the gated community.  From  dozens of hiking trails, beaches, and lakes to plentiful community amenities like a pool, gym, golf course, and a restaurant... Innsbrook is the ultimate area HIDDEN GEM for nature lovers.

Off the beaten path in Innsbrook...

In the continued Nenonen pursuit for a little place of our own tucked in the woods, I had the pleasure of touring rustic a-frame chalets in the lovely Innsbrook Resort today.

So quiet, so peaceful, so lovely...
