For those seeking additional space, the back structure offers versatile potential as an RV garage, workshop, or ultimate man cave, complete with its own dedicated driveway. The separate, extended driveway provides extra parking and the possibility for an ADU, making it an ideal option for additional living space, extended family, or rental income.
