The layout includes three bedrooms and two bathrooms, providing functionality for a residence, rental, or weekend retreat.

Nearly a half-mile of Spring-Fed Creeks creates a scenic backdrop and opportunities for exploring, camping, and nature observation.

Wildlife is frequently seen on the property, with deer and turkey often observed in the fields and along the creek. The combination of wooded cover, water, and forage creates a setting conducive to outdoor recreation and hunting.
