Double-gate allows for camper or RV parking in the backyard. No neighbors behind, so you can sit on the enclosed porch and enjoy your morning coffee watching hay bales be made. Relax in the newly created primary suite that runs from the front to the back of the home. Extended primary bathroom with soaking tub is just off the primary suite. Secondary full bathroom designed with Jack N' Jill doors. Recessed lighting was added throughout the entire home allowing for brightness control. Updated hugger ceiling fans in every room.

R-2
Single-Family And Duplex Dwelling District
The R-2 Single-Family and Duplex Dwelling District is slightly less restrictive than the R-1 district. The principal use of land is for single-family and related recreational, religious, and educational facilities normally required to provide an orderly and attractive residential area. These residential areas are intended to be defined and protected from the encroachment of uses which are not appropriate to residential environment. Internal stability, attractiveness, order and efficiency are encouraged by providing for adequate light, air and open space for dwellings and related facilities and through consideration of, the proper functional relationship of the different uses.
