Large natural rocks and wooded areas still remain to give the property character and beauty. You will fall in love with the charm and feel right at home upon first sight!

Property does have some improvments such as well/44 gallon pressure tank and 1 1/2 inch pump, electricity, storage building and well house. A driveway was installed several years ago from Ditch Gap Rd to one of several building sites. Some clearing of property was done a few years ago, but has grown up some since then.
