The space
🌿 The Property Details
The Roost is located in a quaint farming town, set on seven acres and surrounded by large neighboring parcels that offer a high level of privacy and uninterrupted views. With no close neighbors in sight, the space feels calm, quiet, and secluded — yet friendly neighbors are just a 30-second drive away, creating the perfect balance of seclusion, comfort, and peace of mind.
At dusk, deer often wander across the land, while mornings arrive quietly with birdsong and fresh air.
