The workshop has 220 power (on both sides!) and a dedicated drive with turnaround that is in addition to the circular drive at the front of the house. You must see this place to appreciate it. The apartment build is very well done and everything on the property is impeccably maintained. The workshop is super functional and has it's own entrance.
