Outside, the covered front and back porches invite you to slow down and enjoy the peaceful setting, while the expansive corner lot feels like a private garden retreat. Towering live oaks, mature privacy hedges, flowering plants, and an impressive variety of established fruit trees and tropical landscaping create a lush, secluded atmosphere. A dedicated herb garden with water and electricity adds even more character and functionality. An impressive 12' x 36' Lark steel workshop on a concrete slab offers exceptional versatility, having previously served as an art studio and woodworking shop.
