Three bedrooms and a full bath on the upper entry level and a lower floor featuring perfectly proportioned living and dining areas with brick flooring and an indoor geranium planter are built to accentuate make you feel happy inside while enjoying all of the surrounding beauty outside. The plant room could easily be converted to a wet bar and the charming kitchen boasts all the modern amenities and yet still features a traditional icebox that has been converted into the perfect place to store wine. As you step out of your vehicle under the carport, you will see a set of outside stairs that lead to an open rooftop patio with a grapevine trellis that offers amazing views of the surrounding naturescape. In addition to your own kitchen garden beds, there are over 8 acres of protected open space with dozens of species of native plants and trees.
