Both bonus spaces are mid-renovation, which means the next owner gets to finish them their way, not work around someone else's choices. The attached heated garage fits up to six vehicles, making this a rare find for hobbyists, collectors, or anyone who needs serious storage. Outside, 0.65 acres of flat, tree-lined yard gives the whole property room to breathe.
