How’s that for a piece of Block history? Scotty’s sawmill and the land it sits on is up for sale. For $1.1M you’d be just metres from the charming Farmers Arms pub and be able to build your barndominium – if you get in quick the parcel of land is being sold with Scotty’s steel shed in place along with architectural plans to convert it into a stunning home.
