About this House

Rolling, scenic and ruggedly beautiful 6.02 acre homesite nestled within The Galena Territory near old Belden School that offers a mixture of seclusion, wooded beauty, open pasture, gorgeous views and equestrian potential, with added benefit of greenspace bordering on sides and rear allowing more privacy, buffer trail access and even a stream! Look deep in the woods to find what's left of an original barn dating back to the mid-1800's that still stands as a reminder of yesteryear. Zoned for the stabling of two horses and just a quick ride to the Shenandoah Riding Center equestrian facility. Convenient to all amenities of The Galena Territory, including Owners' Club with indoor and outdoor pools, fitness facility, multi-sport gym, and outdoor tennis, tranquil Lake Galena, and miles of trails! **Please note: Aerial drone photo with overlay does not denote actual lot boundaries.**

"we know all our neighbors and their pets and kids. people here are caring. Everyone knows everyone. Not handicapped compliant town for wheelchairs though. Great little transit with fun drivers! Beautiful area. Deer and wild turkeys in your backyard is awesome. Great Police and fire department. People ❤2 GOSSIP here! SAFE place to land but a vehicle is a must. Town lacks in having entertainment like theater and limited shopping and amenities . "
