About this home.
Expertly designed by a nationally acclaimed professor of forestry and soil science, Oak Spring Farm at 701 Bishop Rd is both an ecological marvel and private retreat. Set on 31+ acres, the land was masterfully shaped to harness wind, water, and sun—and intentionally planted for vibrant, year-round blooms. The 4-bed, 3-bath home features a masonry fireplace, 2nd kitchen, and centrally ducted wood stove. A 42x60 barn includes a full bath, mechanic and carpentry shops, and horse stables. Ride miles of private ATV trails, tend animals in the smart chicken coop, grow in the smart greenhouse, or enjoy the spring-fed pond, stream, garden, and Christmas tree farm. Horse-ready and adventure-rich, this is a rare blend of self-sufficiency and natural beauty. Too many features to list—ASK for the full description! Also ASK for the 50+ page magazine with photos and in-depth details!
