New stone driveway, 15K of new windows. State of the art shed is artist's studio, man cave, bunk house for grandchildren, tinkerers central? Or just a shed. For an old house, this has great storage says the owner. Should you be interested, she designs kitchens and bathrooms and has plans ready. Teachers can roll out of bed to the school across the street, hospital types can be at work in Onancock in 8 minutes. Great location. Come explore this historic treasure.
