Property Description:
FIRST thing to know about Lot 22 is how convenient it is to the new 4-lane Corridor-H (Route 55) highway! Just a half-mile off the highway to your new home in the woods. This lot already has a level driveway cut in to a cleared area of about an acre, opening up a terrific view of the mountains. The other 19 acres are all wooded with some pines but mostly deciduous trees. The center of the property has a small stream bed running through it, which may have water part, but not all of the year. The other side of the property also has some very nice land for camping or building with great views. Directions to the property are below. Both road corners are well marked with bright orange ribbon on trees. The property lines are easy to follow, watching for red paint on the trees, but call me and I'll walk it with you.
