Ownership History:
I purchased it from an owner in Oregon who had started the processes of turning it into an airbnb. Before that it was owned by a couple for twenty years in Ohio. When I received it, I gutted it and fixed it up. My husband and I lived in it for one year in Washington State. When we moved to Arkansas I decided to turn it into a coffee trailer, I had a service window installed and removed the bed. We never started the coffee trailer business, but it is still set up for it.
