Property details

About 306 Rainey Knobs Rd

In the heart of "Old Sapphire," this darling two bedroom with bonus rooms cottage is perched over a small private pond, and surrounded by lush vegetation. The 42.95 acre property is part of an old estate that had an open field (overgrown but easily returned to grass), streams, trails and a knoll that adjoins another property that is now a designated conservation easement. The property is unrestricted and located in a quiet spot off of the Upper Whitewater Road which connects to Highway 64 in two places; at the Whisper Lake entrance, and at Burlingame Country Club. The 42.95 acres and cottage is also offered as a smaller tract of 6.5 +/- acres, see MLS# 104493.
