My property is a small piece of rural heaven, over 2 acres of great trees, yard, woods, and a creek running along the backside of property. Though not in a subdivision, I do have neighbors. Thankfully, our properties are far enough apart to provide each of us privacy. Rural yet close to everything you need.
