The large, professionally landscaped yard comes with rear fencing for seclusion. The large driveway provides space for visiting vehicles and leads to a newly built detached oversized 2 1/2 car garage that doubles as a workshop, is a great home for your van or toys, and includes a huge storage loft. Make a splash in the low maintenance stock tank swimming pool, the social and visual centerpiece of the fully fenced backyard. The backyard also includes garden beds and lovely space to relax.
