There is a gas fireplace in the living room. Step outside the primary suite onto a private deck shaded by massive oaks, where you can sip your morning coffee or unwind in the afternoon sea breeze. There is a greenhouse in the back yard and a detached 20'x20' garage that could fit two cars, currently used as a workshop. Property is zoned R-2, allowing for two dwellings. The home is elevated on an insulated crawlspace, and the roof was replaced three years ago. It's a slice of Folly history waiting for its next story. Your Folly dream is closer than you think.
