    Escape to nature with this expansive property, a canvas for your dreams. Nestled amidst serene landscapes, this land offers a unique blend of seclusion and potential.

Intriguingly, rumors suggest the presence of mineral deposits within Bobs Creek, offering potential for exciting avenue for exploration. Light restrictions to be added at sale no mobile homes, no business signs, and minimum 3 acre lot if subdivided.
