Two upstairs bedrooms, one on main. Bath and a half on main. The additional space is in the lower level basement. Two walk out areas, one framed and plumbed full bath ,fourth bedroom and large family or rec room. There is a second basement with laundry room craft or game room along with a pantry or cellar. The home has large patios and decks. Large fenced yard and groomed walking trail through the woods. Driveway is either paved or cement pad parking for lots of cars, RV or toys, and detached tandem garage. A small day care of 6 kids or less is a permitted use in that district (RR). 7-12 kids would require special review and approval by the Township. In both cases, it requires a license from the state. No duplexes or storage facilities permitted in this location. Many conversations and notes to best gather details and information have occurred with sellers but all buyers and buyers agents will need to verify content.
