About this property
Relaxing Country Getaway, 3BR/2Bath
Put your feet up & relax, as you listen to the breeze, birds, cicada & frogs depending on the time of day. Enjoy peaceful sounds & views of nature while being close to all the area has to offer. The completely remodeled property is located less than 5 miles from the Daniel Boone National Forrest & Big Southfork National River & Recreation area for those who enjoy hiking, canoeing, & kayaking or just being outdoors. Historic Stearns with the Scenic Railway & Golfing is less than 3 miles away.
Additional Perks of this property.
Residence is at the end of a paved road with plenty of privacy and wildlife viewing.
There are 2 fields behind this property for a total of 7.77 acres that you are welcome to explore.
There is a fresh water well in the front yard does have nice spring water with a well bucket and rope so you can experience what it used to be like to draw water from a well prior to indoor plumbing. Since the well cap doesn’t fit tightly there could be some slugs/bugs in the well water, so drinking is not recommended.
The road “Childers Ridge” that you drove in on is a nice place to take a walk but do be observant for the occasional traffic.
There are some grilling utensils on the porch in the wooden cabinet. Wood and seating for the fire pit is provided to help you enjoy the peaceful night sounds in the country..
