A generous bathroom off the hallway features two ample closets and hidden attic storage.At the rear of the clearing are two outbuildings: a custom-built seven-bay 3200-sf l-shaped colonial style garage placed thoughtfully out of sight behind a converted barn garage that is large enough to store cars, power equipment and other items in the loft storage. The 1400 sf area above the bays is unfinished and perfect for storage or other potential use. The custom garage also features a hydraulic lift.Location wise, you could not ask for more.
