It includes a poured concrete floor, insulation, separate electrical service and two heating systems. Fenced in rear yard has a covered patio and large deck with great privacy. Side yard offers plenty of play area or could just serve as a lush greenspace to enjoy. Home and garage feature newer vinyl siding, new roof and gutters in 2018.
