This gem of a house is built to integrate seamlessly with nature, featuring large windows that provide stunning views of the surrounding garden from nearly every room.

A gently flowing natural spring-fed stream, with lily pond, winds under a bridge through the property, creating a habitat for local wildlife, including snowy egrets & mallard ducks. Flowering bushes and trees bloom abundantly, adding vibrant color and tranquility all year long to the park-like setting. A lap pool & spa complements the grounds' aesthetic, offering a private sanctuary for relaxation next to the grassy lawn and rose garden.
