Its charming interior includes a cozy living room with a fireplace and a bright, sunny family room surrounded by trees and ample windows. A downstairs guest suite, complete with a private entrance, offers an extra bedroom and bath. Possibilities abound with an updated garage apartment (2018) & potential to subdivide.
