Drive-up appeal begins with a porte-cochere adorned with a Tesla charging station and a 2 car wide circle driveway. This ‘Not Your Square Box Home’ features pocket doors, mid-20th century Oak floors, Conversation or Reading Coves, Updated Kitchen, and an Attic Fan for those just-right, no AC needed temperatures. The CONTIGUOUS PLACEMENT of Living-Public Use areas is Genius.
