Property Description

Beautiful and peaceful setting in a sought-after Orange County location! This 5.97-acre homesite offers a perfect blend of cleared and wooded land, tucked away on a quiet private road surrounded by just a few neighboring homes.

Plenty of space for horses, chickens, and enjoying nature year-round-lush green surroundings in the summer and gorgeous views in the fall.
