    13530 Scatter Ridge Rd Unit Upstairs, Athens, OH 45701

    The property sits on 15 acres, mostly wooded, with large gardens and open areas to explore, and is quiet escape from the city. The building is a former goat farm, but the goats are long gone, so we converted the barn into a two-unit rental in 2020. We're 1 mile from Strouds Run SP main enterance, and a short walk (~0.25 mi.) to the Thunderbunny Trailhead that connects to the Strouds Run SP trail
