Upstairs bedrooms include functional details like a reading nook, and large storage space. The garage offers a flexible option for a workshop or office, complete with a private entrance and separate access to the downstairs bath. Exterior features elevate the property's lifestyle appeal including: an enclosed raised-bed garden with adjacent sitting area, separate campground, a firepit area just off the deck, a fully enclosed dog run, and even a secure chicken coop.
