While at home, enjoy everything that nature has to offer from an amazing canopy to brilliant waterfall that cascades over 500 ft right off the back porch. Amazing craftsmanship in the floor to ceiling millwork, all from timber harvested on the property. Master on main level with brilliant open floor plan. Guest bedrooms are located on the second floor as well as the finished basement. All combines to create that perfect spot for private retreat or income-producing rental(s)!
