HOMES | FUN & FUNCTIONAL
This unique home is everything the owners hoped it could be - fun, playful
and functional for both family and pets. Maybe a giant slide should be in
everyone's home for a bit of whimsy!
The open layout connects
the kitchen and living
room, providing ample
play space for the whole
family.

LOGAN AND JESSI GLICKFIELD knew exactly what
they were looking for when it came to buying their new
home. They were ready to renovate, as long as the house
had a private setting, ample acreage, sturdy bones to build

home itself.
"We lived in a rental before buying," Jessi says. "We'd
spend full days driving around southwest county [with
schools and work being close by], looking at properties."
"Before we did that, we spent four to six months looking at what was on the market," Logan adds. "We didn't
find what we wanted, so we started looking at other ways
to find a home."
Their search included letters to a few homeowners
whose homes were not currently on the market. Jessi
Glickfield let them know if the homeowners were thinking of moving or selling, they would be interested. They
even had a few replies and toured those homes!
Then one day, the house that would soon become
their home went on the market. The couple saw it
