The magic and beauty of this property will speak to the most discriminating buyers - it truly has it all…. and more. The Setting Approaching this property down a quiet country road with a forested canopy is nothing short of enchanting.  You get the feeling that you are approaching somewhere special as you pass a seasonal waterfall, old stone walls, manicured fields all opening to a beautifully sited home well suited to it’s surrounding environment.
