Imagine your very own private cottage, nestled in a fully fenced garden oasis. This charming 2-bed, 1-bath home sits on a spacious .4-acre lot, surrounded by lush greenery, fruit trees, and garden areas. Enjoy relaxing on the tranquil patios, or take advantage of the multiple sheds for storage or hobbies. A bonus is the detached office, complete with a Murphy bed and partially installed 3-piece bath—with great potential for use as a guest suite or third bedroom when needed.
