WHY DO WE SHOW EXPIRED LISTINGS?
This is an unusual and flexible opportunity, not an estate situation or estate duties. We are an older, retired couple, living on a large, beautiful, informal country property consisting of gardens, woods, rocks & trails. We have a spacious one bedroom private cottage, and wish to share our unique property with two people who are experienced and comfortable with nature & wildlife in a quiet country setting.
The position could be part time for a short time & evolve to full time. Salary commensurate with our needs and your skills and experience. Applicants must be experienced, older adults. They must be open to a long-term job situation, possibly 4-5+ years. We can't consider people who both have full time jobs.
Summary - living and sharing the enjoyment and maintenance of this property, and having a mutually beneficial relationship, would be an accurate description of the situation we offer. Flexible move in date.
