Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2008
I'm a retired Air Force Officer. Was the assistant city manager of Niceville. Wife is deceased. Worked for FEMA for many years. My son who conducts his computer programming business from an office in the big house lives with me. I'm 77 so he takes care of the property. We have two small dogs...and love all dogs so long as they are housebroken. We lost our house in 1995 to Hurricane Hugo. I've just purchased a pretty, large Travel Trailer that will serve as a
Hurricane retreat for myself and guests. It will not be rented or intefere in any way with renters of the advertised guest house. Come, be safe and enjoy.
