The spacious in-law suite offers excellent versatility, boasting a wall of windows, notable ceiling height, a full bath, abundant storage, and private exterior access—ideal for guests, a home office, or rental potential. Outdoor spaces reflect the owner’s professional touch as a landscape designer, with a lush pollinator garden, thoughtfully composed plantings, and multiple areas for relaxation and entertaining, including a welcoming front porch, rear deck, and stone patio.
