98.98 acres featuring high rolling hill with great views! Mostly wooded road frontage offers great privacy to property. The driveway meanders by pond and gradually climbs in elevation to the hilltop ridge and the northern property boundary is shaped by Long Branch Creek. The property has great a combination of open meadows and wooded areas, perfect for wildlife habitat. Improvements include water well, underground electric service, and two cabins (in need of repair).
