This is parcel #3 of 3 and is 4.5 acres +/-. Less secluded and less wooded than the other two properties, this could be set as a single family home or perhaps two or a townhouse might fit nicely, but think of it, in the sweet spot of Sunset View--you can't beat it! 

Refer to the drone shot: When you see the single roof home, this property lies across the property.
