Public Remarks: Your RETREAT: A place to write your Great American Novel; to escape the hustle and bustle of the everyday. Nestled at the foot of Hidden Valley road, an easy walk to the Ohio River, this could be your get-away-from-the-world WEEKEND VACATION HOME. Set back off the road at the rear of the lot, this home features: SECLUSION, PRIVACY & TRANQUILITY. It has an across-the-front COVERED FRONT PORCH (what a place to lounge away the day); a WOOD-BURNING FIREPLACE to take the edge off cool nights. NOTES: the charm of Hidden Valley Road is not for everyone. It is a narrow, gravel road with a relatively steep grade as it heads down to the river. Do use caution. The water is supplied by a cistern and is not for drinking. Current owner brings in bottled drinking water. ...collects non-potable water.
