The 'Main House,' a beautifully preserved 1935-era residence, serves as the primary home and offers 3 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms with hardwood floors, fiber cement siding, generator setup, and timeless architectural charm. The outdoor living experience is equally impressive with a beautifully landscaped backyard, outdoor kitchen, enclosed exterior bathroom, tranquil fountain, 23 blueberry bushes, and a private retreat-like setting.
