Outdoors, the property truly shines with a private setting, a peaceful creek running behind the shop on the south side and then Waugh river running along the property line, approx 6 acres of woodland, and plenty of space to explore or enjoy. A large insulated workshop with 220 power is perfect for hobbyists or additional storage. The attached garage with in-floor heat, durable asphalt roof (4 years old with transferable 50-yr warranty), and numerous thoughtful updates complete the package.
