The Hidden Forest community currently has three single family houses, each on a minimum ten acre lot. This secluded little neighborhood has it all: beautiful arch bridges over meandering creeks, roadside wildflowers and abundant wildlife, owls and hawks, plus dark sky night views of the moon and stars (due to minimal night lighting). From River Road, a gravel road winds along a gurgling brook, leading to the Lot #3 private driveway, which climbs up to an exquisite cleared level homesite at the top of the hill. Southern exposure provides plenty of sunshine. The homesite has a panoramic wide angle winter view of the nearby mountains and hills. A year round view can be created with some selective tree cutting. The pristine nature of this subdivision is not marred by ugly overhead utilities. Underground electricity and fiber optic cables (internet, TV, possible landline, etc.) are located at the lower end of this lot, and can be readily extended along a hiking trail up to the homesite. A scenic stretch of the New River, popular in summer with kayakers and tubers, is only a quarter mile from the private subdivision entrance, and under a 1/2 mile from this homesite. The river is close enough to reach by bicycle or an invigorating walk, but far enough away for quiet and privacy. If this sounds like the right place for you to unwind from the stress of city life, you're welcome to check it out in person. Roughly a 15 minute drive (8.5 miles) to New Market center in Boone.
