Honestly, the photos may tell the story of just how unique and special this home is best. Or perhaps, a tour! The current owner has done considerable landscaping and plantings, much of which is still dormant in the photos, though the gardens are currently in the process of revealing their lush wonders once again, as Spring unfolds. The landscape almost presents itself as an array of outdoor rooms, each area with its own allure. Additionally, there's a storage shed behind cottage, and there's an abundance of off-street parking, perhaps up to 8 or more vehicles, if needed. Again, this is a very unique property, a true treasure, the type of property that's not easily found, or reproduced. Showings begin Saturday, April 13, 2024.
