What makes this property unique

A lake when the water is high, a beautiful river when the waters low. All crowned by a majestic limestone bluff, complete with cave and endless room for adventures.

This land was once a part of a wagon trail along the river and, if you're lucky, you can still find arrowheads along the paths.

The property is gated with a high privacy fence along the neighboring borders for security. north of the property is a 15 acres of undeveloped HOA land which gives the property a very private feel.
