Opportunity Knocks

When I moved to Three Rivers years ago, many storefront owners lived where they worked. They had a little store along the highway with a connecting residence behind their commercial venture. There was even more of that down home feeling in Three Rivers. Trish had a delicious little antique store connected to her home. Suzanne and Alice ran another antique store called Country Girl Antiques. There was a man who carved wooden faces and elaborate walking sticks who lived in the red a-frame across from the White Horse. Merv and Faye made apple cider in their barn behind the Cider Mill. The Pot Belly was the place to get great pancakes. Joan and Jerry Johnson made one feel welcomed and at home when visiting and staying at the Lazy J. I remember when we first visited Three Rivers, Joan's kids invited me to go swimming with them. In our small little town with seasonal activity, this way of conducting business just makes sense. The Three Rivers Market is one of them. Team Diana just listed the Three Rivers Market and gas station. Connected to the business is a 2 bedroom RIVERFRONT home. This is a wonderful opportunity for someone looking to get out of the city or are just wanting to be in business for themselves. There are strong numbers to support the purchase and the current owner will stay on for a time to ensure the success of his successor.
