Outside, a large back deck overlooks the fenced yard, perfect for gatherings, gardening, or relaxation. Two raised garden boxes and a small pond create a serene backyard sanctuary, providing a welcoming spot for birds and adding a touch of natural beauty. The detached garage has been thoughtfully converted into an upscale studio, complete with an adjoining covered brick patio for lounging or entertaining. The driveway offers off-street parking for two vehicles, and a gated section ensures privacy.
