As of September 2022

Some of the prettiest land you will ever see! So secluded with that country feel yet only 10 minutes from downtown Covington or downtown McDonough! Adorable and very well kept home in very good condition! Huge Great Room with wood burning stove, formal dining room with hardwood floors! Nice size eat-in kitchen with lots of cabinets and hardwood floors! Owners Suite on Main! HUGE 3 bay garage with elctricity is perfect for extra storage, work shop, cars and mowers! Outside tiny house with full bath, clean the fish you caught from your private pond on the outside bar. Raised beds are in place for your own garden, pick blue berries from the mature producing bushes! Most of the property is fenced. Have to see to appreciate this gorgeous property! Well on property is used for outside watering when needed but could be converted to the house, you could live off the grid on this slice of heaven!
