MORE “GOOD” MEMORIES TO COME
After H.K. and Frances passed away, Cackle Corner Farms sold in 2009 and had four different owners over the next 10 years. Each owner loved the property and made slight – and also major – improvements. By the time the property came on the market again in 2021, it seemed to be waiting for just the right next owner. Nate & Gigi Haskell were ready to get back to their country roots after 30 years living in the city. Having visited Chatt Hills many times before, they found a farmette in Serenbe they liked, but someone else beat them to it. Then they started looking out in the rural part of Chatt Hills and were shown the Cackle Corner Farms, but there was already an offer on the property. However, the house must have worked its magic because the offer was pulled, and Nate and Gigi jumped on the opportunity. One year later, Nate and Gigi love their new-old home and the many neighbors who have welcomed them to the Friendship Community. They look forward to becoming the caretakers of this heritage property and plan on carrying on the tradition of making “Good Memories at Cackle Corner Farms.” Note: A shorter version of this story was written for the Chatt Hills News – The municipal newsletter. The longer version is included for the Chatt Hills History website to capture more of the rich details provided by the Goodes family. |
