in Hogsback is a 15-acre secluded property in its own valley
with a perennial tumbling stream and wetland.
Hogsback is renowned for its scenic beauty during all seasons:
the profusion of blossoms in spring, the cascading waterfalls
and verdant green of the indigenous forests in summer, the splendour
of the oaks, maples and many other deciduous trees in autumn,
and the magic of light snowfalls in winter.
