The grounds have undergone an even more impressive transformation with new cantilevered river deck, (2) new sets of stairs and landings down to the river, extensive grading, drainage system, and retaining wall to create front and back lawns with zoysia sod and landscaping. The massive landscaping and hardscaping project featured over 2000 new shrubs and trees, approval from county and state authorities to open the views to the river, new sealed pebbled stone drive with electronic gate, 18 zone sprinkler system, and fencing to keep deer out.

The 7.59 acre estate is platted as three separate lots and offers the opportunity to build 2 additional homes or additional structures or hold the lots as investments.
