My friends were called. A house and the land outside of Shelburne needed to be sold. My friends the agents were asked to evaluate the property and list it for sale. So far, all is normal but when speaking to the owner, discovered that the property had been obtained by an inheritance. The owner lived in the US and had never been to Nova Scotia. And had never come to see the property even though the present owner had owned it for five years. This house had not been opened for five years.
My friends arrived to see the house carrying a broom. They had no idea what to find. What they found was amazing. The agent took two steps into the house waving the broom. Then she backed out. Every surface was covered with spiders. Millions and millions of spiders. Every wall. Every ceiling. Every floor. Every piece of furniture was covered by spiders. The first call was to the owner for permission to hire the exterminator and the cleaning crew. By Monday all bugs were gone. And by Thursday the place was clean and ready to be shown.
This house is not the draw for this property. The house sits on 1300 feet of a sand white beach along with 10 acres. The setting is lovely and is being shown today. I will be interested to see who buys this waterfront land. The number of land available on the water is getting difficult to find. But no one would even go into that house without the spiders gone. And no one who buys that property would live in that tiny house either except as a guest house. But now it is all clean and tidy with no spiders in sight. I will be interested with the action.
