Outside, enjoy the expansive backyard shaded by gorgeous mature trees, a roomy patio perfect for relaxing or entertaining, and a fully fenced yard that is already equipped with multiple front gates for added security. An oversized two-car garage and large driveway provide ample parking and convenience. Additional updates from 2019 include the installation of a new aerobic septic system, all new windows, the electric work redone, HVAC system replaced, and a full roof replacement.
