Outside, enjoy peaceful mornings and relaxing evenings from the wrap-around porch overlooking the wooded surroundings. The oversized 3-car garage provides ample space for vehicles, storage, hobbies, or workshop space. Recent improvements include new dual-zone HVAC systems (2025), hot water heater (2023), encapsulated crawlspace with dehumidifier and sump pump, new well bladder tank, and approximately 20 years remaining on the 40-year architectural shingle roof.
