Mature trees, lilacs, and beautiful landscaping provide privacy and charm rarely found this close to town ~ Additional highlights include a finished English basement filled with natural light-ideal for a home office, recreation room, or additional living space-plus a unique heated and insulated office/man cave room located behind the garage with views of the extended backyard.
