This totally private area backs onto protected land, and offers a large, flat yard. The spacious primary suite includes an updated bath with walk-in shower. Additional finished living space in the lower level offers lots of flexibility. The detached studio building has electricity and AC, and has been used as an artist's studio and home office.
