A large laundry room provides an abundance of space and convenience next to the second staircase. The grounds are the true highlight of the home with no expense spared. Meander through the different walking paths and admire the lush landscaping that rivals the Botanic Gardens. Enjoy resort-like living by the pool surrounded by picturesque scenery and complete privacy, all with the convenience of a full outdoor bath, while being just steps from town.
