The Main House, built in 1994 and beautifully renovated in 2017, offers 2,776 square feet of elegant living space with three bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a two-car garage. The open-concept kitchen is a chefs dream, boasting quartzite countertops, double ovens, and a filtered water system. Marble countertops enhance the bathrooms, while two propane fireplaces, one in the living room and another in the primary suite, add warmth and charm. The primary bathroom includes a separate shower, an electric fireplace and a jacuzzi bath for a spa-like experience. Other features include an enclosed patio, a dedicated home office for two, a tile roof, two new HVAC units (2019/2022), and a sparkling pool alongside an outdoor fireplace and fire pit, perfect for entertaining or relaxing in your private oasis.
The Guest House, a spacious 2,080-square-foot home originally built in 1970, was fully renovated in 2017 including updated electrical, plumbing, and foundation work. It includes three bedrooms and three bathrooms, with two master suites featuring ensuite baths. A large, enclosed patio overlooks a fenced backyard, while two new HVAC units ensure year-round comfort. This home also includes a detached four-bay enclosed carport for parking or additional storage.
