Nope.

Well, too bad, we didn't get it.

Apparently there was a last minute buyer who came out of the woodwork. The wife grew up near the cottage, and when the sellers heard who wanted to buy it, they broke down with tears of happiness. So we wouldn't have had a chance no matter what. I don't think they even paid more than we offered.

So, back on the hunt. It wasn't meant to be this time around...
