Home, Shop, Greenhouse on 8 AcresSuch a lovely setting on nearly 8 acres backing to state forest! In addition to the big home with two kitchens, there is a large shop with a wood stove for heat, a greenhouse with a grape arbor, and a chicken coop for fresh eggs! Two wells serve the property, and a creek runs through it. Wildlife abounds! Located about 12 miles south of St. Maries on Hwy 3 South, this is a wonderfully accessible property about equal distance to Coeur d'Alene, Lewiston and Moscow.

Janna Rankin Scharf - Coeur d'Alene, Idaho Off-Grid Homes for Sale   Some of you will remember my post of two weeks ago, when I got lost in the boonies trying to find a property where I had a listing appointment.  This weekend I am heading a couple hours south again, into the hinterlands, with better directions, determined to find my off-grid guy in his cabin on 5 acres surrounded by national forest that he wants to sell for $100,000.  I can just see your raised eyebrows right now.    WHY in the world is she doing that???    Call me crazy, but I just like this guy and his remote, off-grid property.  He found me and asked me to help him.  I know I can effectively market his property to the most likely buyer - someone from out of the area who wants a hunting/recreation property.  In fact,... 10/21/2011

Janna Rankin Scharf, GRI, CLHMS, SFR, AB - Coeur d'Alene Idaho Real Estate Today my travels took me a couple hours south to an area I have never ventured into before.  South of St. Maries, where Highway 3 forks, I went to the right.  I got lost and never did find my destination.  I think I was close.  My destination was an off-grid property that a fellow would like me to sell for him.  I got lost and there was no cell reception.  Which means that my GPS also didn't work, but even when it finally did, it couldn't tell me where this property is.  It essentially told me, "You can't get there from here!"  I found myself wishing that I had an old-fashioned map with me.  Those were the days!  And of course, when you are miles and miles out in the boonies, there is no corner store to stop at a... 10/08/2011

I took a topless Sunday drive this perfect spring afternoon with my husband Rick, south along the Coeur d'Alene River down to Saint Maries.  At one point I just had to stop my convertible to take this picture!

I did a home inspection not long ago on a home that was completely off the electrical grid.  It was one of the more fascinating homes I've done.  In addition to the solar panels, wind turbine and assorted other advanced renewable energy technologies, it had a bank of industrial batteries. Now these are not part of your everyday home inspection.  Since I was a certified Home Performance Specialist for the state of Idaho, I have a fair amount of experience with alternative energy and energy efficient housing, so I got the job.  That's one of the advantages of being the nerdiest of the inspectors in the area - I get alot of the fun projects. Anyway, I had to inspect and test these batteries.  My client was concerned (rightfully) that the batteries may have issues adn he didn't want to get ... 02/01/2009
