The landscape is truly a sanctuary, featuring a 12-foot deep spring-fed pond with a sandy beach, a stone patio with a fire pit, and a tranquil gazebo for stargazing or morning coffee. This thoughtfully designed homestead includes fruit-bearing apple and pear trees, fenced-in raised garden beds, a solar-powered 1, 000-gallon chlorinated water system, and even a natural tree pergola for outdoor cooking. It's as self-sufficient as it is scenic.
