A former building inspector and his wife have lived in this beautiful home for the past seven years and they seem to have spent every free moment perfecting every possible aspect of this home.

The owners have created an ABSOLUTE OASIS to retreat to in the spacious picket fenced backyard. Enjoy the private back deck in the mornings with coffee while you catch up on the news on the outdoor TV. Or barbecue with friends and gather around around the fire pit- and then take a dip in the hot tub! Soon a profusion of spring blossoms including hydrangeas, Rose of Sharon, pink honeysuckle, knock out roses and china berry will make this space even more inviting. Plus there is a shed and tool bench with electric service as well as a smaller storage shed for lawn equipment.
