Two parcels totaling .34 acres feature a 24x24 detached 2-car garage built in 2021, utility shed, fire pit, garden, and mature trees. Additional purchase price applies.
Quality 2x6 construction is complemented by major updates, including a new roof, siding, and gutters in 2020, as well as updated kitchen appliances and LVP flooring in 2021.
