A separate bonus area of 635 SF provides valuable storage and exciting potential for a home gym, workshop, hobby area or future needs. Additional highlights include hardwood flooring, an EV charger, a two-car garage with two new garage doors (Oct 2025 and Sep 2026) and a septic system installed in May 2021.
