Description

Discriminating taste? Want privacy? Want chickens? Remarkable upscale home on this property with a lovely winter view. The sellers have always preferred the privacy the trees have afforded them but with some tree trimming there would be a fabulous long range year round view. The location is perfect, only a few minutes to the hospital, shopping and schools. You will love the 9' ceilings, 8' doors and tall windows providing so much natural light. The decks are full length front and back and covered...Discriminating taste? Want privacy? Want chickens? Remarkable upscale home on this property with a lovely winter view.
