The Owner Loves….
“There is so much I’m going to miss about this place. I wasn’t a birdwatcher until I came here, and now I delight in seeing them all from huge eagles to small native wrens. At night you can see the stars from the bedroom, and days are spent in the pool or playing croquet backdropped by the lake views. It’s one of those places that is simply not replicable.”
