Surrounded by trees, and bordered by a private 1-acre pond, this farmhouse, built around 1845, began life as a single room school house built in the late 1700s.
Over the years, thanks to additions, the single room, which is now the living room, grew to become a farmhouse, including a fully finished two-story carriage house, bank barn with stables suitable for horses, fenced land, fishing pond and spring house.
The previous owner, Dr. Paul Kase, lived on the 95-acre farm for over 25 years and co-developed the Windmere neighborhood, leaving the farm with its 9-plus acres.
Confident Ngeno Dominated Distances
John Ngeno of Washington State was looking to make a statement in the 3-mile at the 1975 NCAA Division I Outdoor Track & Field Championships.
With a victory by 14.03 seconds over defending champ Paul Geis of Oregon, Ngeno made his point: Ngeno crossed the finish line in 13:22.73; Geis finished in 13:36.76.
That winning margin was – and remains – the largest by a man in meet history, even combining 5000-meter races. And it came a day after winning the 6-mile, making Ngeno the first such distance doubler since another WSU Cougar, Gerry Lindgren, won three from 1966-68.
Asked if the altitude at Provo, Utah, made it hard, Ngeno responded, “Hard? Why should it be hard? It is no different up here than down below.”
