This home's exquisite charm continues throughout the three guest, tenant, or office quarters. Set on 1.57 acres of resort-like grounds, this privately enclosed sanctuary offers colorful gardens, towering trees, a picturesque gazebo, and a bubbling stream. Birds serenade the peaceful setting, while an outdoor kitchen and wisteria-draped dining is perfect for hosting unforgettable gatherings!
