Outside you'll find a pool and pool house, and a yard enclosed by an owner-built Jeffersonian serpentine brick wall. There's enough land in pasture for livestock, and there are several springs and a bold stream. On the flank of Findlay Mountain you'll find a building site with an incredible panoramic Blue Ridge vista.
