In the 1.55 acre yard you'll find custom stacked plank fencing, several outbuildings, dog kennels, iron gates, retaining walls, and mature landscaping. Don't forget the cottage! Day one income producing rental or in-law suite. 656 square feet features a full bed/bath, along with large living room/kitchen combo, all on a separate septic. The pride of ownership shows at every turn. There are FAR too many details to mention so please check out the pictures and ask, ask ask!
