Why they chose this property
Whispering Meadow has an interesting history. The original owners built the home as a vacation retreat. One owner studied meadows and leaf peepers while the other owner wrote speeches for Ronald Reagan. As second owner, we have maintained the integrity of the field study by making the meadows a protected wildlife habitat. Our children have created trails to walk and enjoy the Mystical island situated between the home and the Shaver's Fork River.
Whispering Meadow has the most perfect of scenery. One can sit on the front and gaze at the mountain view while taking in the gorgeous meadow wildflowers. The yard is manicured and kept natural. The back contains the estuary and a mystical island that take one to the Shaver's Fork River.
