favoriteWhat we love about our area

Property is in the country yet 3 miles from a grocery store and 6 miles to the beach. Very private and plenty of land around the house. Arena is next door and riding horses daily is very convenient. Year round temperatures never changes more than 10 degrees and typically in the 70's.

We have a King Charles Cav dog who is sweet and likes to sit on your lap and sleep with you. Our cat Libby thinks she's a dog and loves attention. Our 2 horses (4 on the property) require their buckets plus turnout daily. I have other people that ride them when Im gone (2 days a week). We have a sweet feral barn cat who gets a handful of dry food morning/night.
