"My Secret Garden" . Enjoy the serene garden setting! Three large, and I do mean large, bedrooms including a vaulted master suite up, a master suite down, along with an extra 3/4 bath on the main. Two sets of French doors on the main floor open to 40 feet of covered veranda overlooking the lush backyard plantings, a large 3- tiered fountain and western area views. Fruits for all seasons in the extensive gardens; pears, apples, peaches, figs, grapes, plums. The interior paint could be freshened up but other than that this home will lift your spirits and favorably surprise you even before wandering the garden paths.
