Greenville Retreat

This residential estate features acres of secluded pleasure grounds designed for family living, entertaining and play. A gracious entry drive and arrival forecourt celebrates the approach to the main residence. Garden terraces behind the house provide outdoor spaces for hosting parties and recreational gardening (with a formal herb garden and a hillside perennial border). New amenities draw together the whole family: a swimming pool and hot tub, a fireplace and fire pit, a basketball court and the adjacent 1 acre dog run wildflower meadow. Former agricultural fields are being cultivated as native shrublands and wildflower meadows, both wet and dry, in order to provide important grassland habitat for wildlife and migratory birds. The open spaces are fringed with Eastern deciduous woodland that are also managed for ecological health and canopy succession. A network of trails and a rustic stone “counsel ring” provide infrastructure for cross country training and midwinter bonfires.
