The backyard reveals a beautifully manicured garden with mature plum, apple, persimmon, and lemon trees and a multitude of flowers—ideal for morning tea or evening reflection.

With recent electrical upgrades and a newer roof, the home offers modern comfort with timeless charm. *Per graphic design : main house 1,040 sq ft + detached 227 sq ft = total 1,267 sq ft.
