Property Type and Location
A beautiful mill building with an old oil boiler in the basement and a solid fuel Rayburn in the living quarters. A flood destroyed the oil boiler and with a two week old baby and dropping temperatures a financially viable solution had to be found quickly.
Birds’ Hill Solution
