This one will not disappoint. You will enjoy sitting on the covered front porch, rocking and listening to the sound of the creek or maybe take in the sun on the back deck while watching the kids or pets play. Enter into the office space or reading nook, complete with gas stove for cold winter evenings and at the end a pantry...Wouldn't you love a cabin with creek frontage the length of the property, 2 car garage w/single carport, level yard, fenced yard for fur babies, easy access and pastoral views.
