Imagine a quiet afternoon reading, an inspiring creative space, a place for guests, or simply somewhere to disconnect and enjoy the surrounding forest.
For those who appreciate the outdoors, the land itself is the star of the show.
Well-maintained trails wind through the 16 acres, inviting you to explore and experience the property in every season. There are peaceful wooded areas, open spaces, an animal paddock and countless places to stop, wander, sit and enjoy the natural surroundings. Wildlife is abundant, adding to the feeling that you have truly escaped from the everyday.
One of the most special features is the trail leading toward the river.
