Description & Details

If you've been paying attention, you know that we have had our work cut out for us on this one! The house, garage, shop, and shed are all packed to the gills. The man of the house was an avid collector and a true tinkerer. 

Unfortunately the house is right in the middle of the South Highlands carpool line, so our hours will differ from the norm. We will have to close before 2:00pm on Thursday and Friday to avoid a traffic jam.

Thursday and Friday are full price, 10:00am - 1:30pm

Saturday is 25% off 10:00am - 12:00pm and 50% off 1:00pm - 4:00pm
