135 W ASHBY ELLIS Oakland, MD 21550

"Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it. The river was cut by the world's great flood and runs over rocks from the basement of time. On some of the rocks are timeless raindrops. Under the rocks are the words, and some of the words are theirs." Stepping into this special place brings to mind the words of the beautiful book, "A River Runs Through It" by Norman Maclean. River property is special, unique and rare. This perfectly describes this stunning Youghiogheny riverfront home which is truly a retreat from the hectic world.
