A delightful surprise awaits when you turn off of Murphy Highway and follow the private road and long driveway that suddenly opens up to an impressive chalet type home surrounded by towering trees. Enjoy the nearly three acre partially wooded property that includes a huge grassy area perfect for tossing a ball or playing volleyball and badminton (toys provided). Two branches meander through the property and make for a perfect source of water for regular wildlife visitors including deer, wild turkey, rabbits and groundhogs. There are several fruit trees including blueberries, pears and figs and many flowering plants that bloom during different parts of the year. Spring time will delight when there are rhododendron, mountain laurel, daylily and iris blooms everywhere you look.
