One thing we Loved about this House while Living in the House, was the ability to look at the Beautiful Sky at Night with the Moon and Stars. Our neighbors are quiet and when the skies are clear you should be able to enjoy this Night Time Scene. Also, we enjoyed Watching the Cows across the Road from the Front of our House, plus Deer grazing in the Pasture, and other wildlife such as Ducks, Rabbits, Squirrels, etc.
At the Back of the House, we have a Nice Deck with Outdoor Tables and Chairs for 8 people. If you need more, just let us know before you arrival. Also, there is a Grill to use and a Fire Pit to Roast Marshmallows or enjoy the these anytime during the Year.
