Great place, remote with all the comfort

The house is located on the end of the road, which give the property nice privacy. There’s a dry creek behind the property too which makes it private and serene. Great for walking around. The pool is nice and clean. Very modern. Each bedroom has a private en suite. Nice high ceilings. The homeowner was very nice and quick to respond.
