"HUNTS POINT, Wash. — Rolling the waterfront house onto a barge on Lake Washington took just over 20 minutes. The house's maritime trip to British Columbia will take a bit longer.
In an effort to preserve a spectacular home at a bargain price, a Canadian family is moving the 3,360-square-foot, two-story house from its lakeshore location in this suburb east of Seattle to a site near Nanaimo on Vancouver Island.
According to public filings, the former owners bought the home for $9.4 million; but they just wanted the 44,000-square-foot lot.
So they contacted Nickel Brothers House Moving USA Inc., which then listed the home for $335,000, including moving the entire thing."
