Air conditioner installed in 2019, hot water heater in 2021 and freshly painted exterior. The wood burning fireplace, built-in seating and open beam ceilings add charm to the living room, and in true mid-century fashion, the exterior walls are comprised mainly of Pecky Cypress.

The oversized 640 sq ft primary bedroom features open beam ceilings, French windows and doors, ensuite bath, walk-in closet and more than one private entrance.

A 10' x 12' free-standing outbuilding w/electric at the back of the property can be used as an artist's workshop or for storage.
