Description
Here's a lovely and distinctive home that offers privacy and seclusion yet is located conveniently close to Hwy 41 and Hwy 53. It's a just quick trip to everywhere you need to be!
The most stunning feature to greet you as you step inside is the extensive use of sophisticated Pebble Tech flooring. An inlaid elk silhouette adorns the entry and punctuates the home's gracious design.
This upscale high tech flooring is beautiful and durable. It offers years of low maintenance upkeep in the high traffic areas of the home, including the beautiful staircase.
At the front entry is a spacious home office. Opposite is the oversized formal dining room where you will entertain your guests in style. The living room has a vaulted ceiling and is anchored by a gas fireplace. The hardwood flooring is made of attractive elm, and big windows allow natural light to warm the living space.
Between the living room and gourmet kitchen is an informal dining area with french doors opening to a magnificent 16x32 covered patio. Let your living overflow into the great outdoors where wildlife is a frequent visitor.
The gourmet kitchen has new granite and many upscale bells and whistles. There's a big walk-in pantry and a kitchen planning desk to serve as your command center. If your guests insist on congregating in the kitchen, no worries. There is plenty of elbow room here!
The master suite is also conveniently located on the main level. It features a large and luxurious bathroom with double sinks, a walk-in shower and an oversized jetted tub big enough for two.
A wonderful bonus is the beautiful full apartment also found on the main level. It has an entrance from the garage, as well as entrances to the front and back yards. It has a lovely living room, kitchen and casual dining area and a comfortable bedroom with a large full bathroom. You can put up your visiting guests in grand style!
Another wonderful feature is the expansive upstairs family room and media center wired for surround sound. Here is your personal retreat! It features a wet bar kitchenette and provides much flexible space for whatever your lifestyle desires may be.
Also upstairs are three large bedrooms, one with a hardwood floor. Altogether, there are 5 bedrooms, including the apartment. There also are two full baths upstairs and another room that could serve as an exercise room, sewing room, hobby room, storage room or? YOU decide!
What North Idaho lifestyle home would be complete without a big shop? Here is a huge 40x60 "man cave" with it's own bathroom. There's plenty of room for all your "stuff" and you can spend hours tinkering with your toys in heated comfort!
The Virtual Tour link will take you to panoramic photos of the interior spaces. Don't hesitate to give me a call if you have questions or would like to have a personal tour of this exceptional one-of-a-kind property.

Janna Rankin Scharf, GRI, CLHMS, SFR - Coeur d'Alene, Idaho Short Sale Specialis
A former short sale client of mine called me the other day. He asked me to look up some information for tax purposes and I was more than happy to help him out.
In our conversation I mentioned how many people I have recently run into who have simply given up in despair and let their house go back to the bank in foreclosure. Most of the time, they would have been far better off in several different ways to have sold their house through a short sale.
The next morning I awoke to find this kind endorsement in my mailbox. If you or someone you know is wondering if a short sale may be a good option for you, please read Jake's experience and then give me a call for a confidential consultation:
 For anyone out there going through the foreclosure process and weighing your options between attempting a short sale and just plain giving up, please look no further.
I was there just over a year ago and thought there was no hope in sight. I luckily stumbled across Janna's information online and took a shot in the dark. I don't know if I can say enough!
I don't think I could have imagined anyone taking my personal case more serious. Even though she didn't stand to make a fortune off of my problem she literally jumped in head first and through the entire process of struggles she remained focused, dedicated, and positive until I actually SOLD my home!
Even writing this now I still can't believe that I escaped my foreclosure and I'm so much better off financially because of it. I owe all of this to one person and although it might sound cheesy - Janna Scharf solved my problems and saved the day!
Please give her the opportunity to do the same for you. You will never regret having her on your side, and just like she did for me I guarantee she will work her tail off - that's just who she is!

 If you are in the market to purchase a short sale property in Coeur d'Alene, or in Kootenai or Shoshone counties, here is a handy link that will take you to all properties currently listed as short sales in the Coeur d'Alene Multiple Listing Service:
All Properties Currently Listed as Short Sales in the Coeur d'Alene Multiple Listing Service
As of today, January 29, 2012, there are 211 active short sale property listings in the Coeur d'Alene area, and another 70 Coeur d'Alene area short sale listings are in escrow with sales pending. A little bit of trivia - 5 of those pending short sale properties are my listings!
At the high end of the price spectrum is a stately home at The Club at Black Rock, listed as a short sale for $2,495,000. Wowser! It has 6,734 "nearly finished" square feet on 1.4 acres. Here's proof that being in a Coeur d'Alene short sale situation is an "equal opportunity" condition.
 At the other end of the spectrum is a tiny and cute little house in Smelterville for just $16,000. Yes, that's right, just $16,000! (If you'd like some comic relief, click the link to read how Smelterville recently gained prominence in the Silver Valley...)
Of course, between those two extremes are all manner of short sale homes in every conceivable price range and location.
The link above will update with new Coeur d'Alene area short sale listings and status changes daily. It will remain active for 30 days. If you stumble upon this link after that, just give me a call and I will gladly send you a fresh link.
Below are some links to some of my recent Coeur d'Alene short sale success stories. Nothing is more gratifying than to have a part in helping someone avoid foreclosure and achieve the best possible outcome in a very unfortunate situation.
If you or someone you know is wondering if a short sale might be a good option, please call me in complete confidence. I can help you weigh your options and give you information to make the best decision based on your individual circumstances.
