Quality built with 2x6 exterior framing and a whole house fan, the home is made for year-round efficiency. Step outside to enjoy the fully fenced backyard, lush with three types of grapevines, blackberry bushes, and two producing apple trees, an Asian pear and peach tree and a full bed of lemon balm. Raised garden beds are ready for your green thumb, while the expansive back yard includes an irrigation system on the fruit trees. Multiple outbuildings and room for RV parking give you all the space you need for hobbies and storage. The seller has also built an incredible custom, handmade spa made out of cedarwood and powered by propane. Enjoy peaceful evenings in the enclosed, screened-in patio or observe the local deer, rabbits, and squirrels that frequently visit—nature lovers will feel right at home. Whether you’re dreaming of a quiet retreat, space to garden, or room to roam, this property checks all the boxes. Come see it today—your new beginning awaits!
