Approx. .25 acre of side yard is fenced for your chldrn or pets, & there is a built in bench overlooking the front yard where you can relax by yourself or cuddle with a loved one or two! Beyond the treeline lies a creek-fed pond & former cleared area which was the location of many gatherings of friends and family. Large 3 bay garage formerly used as a horse barn would be perfect for animals, horticultural, or organic farming.
