It is waiting for you to make your own memories. Great water views looking to the East Branch of the John's River are protected by an open space view easement. The 120 acres of forest has been carefully managed as a woodlot since 1947 and there is a professional forestry plan in place. There is substantial value represented in standing timber. The forest is serviced by a network of multi use trails suitable for hiking, cross country skiing, horseback riding, etc. Excellent rental history
