The style of this home suits the .78 acre land it sits on perfectly. Like many individually built ranch homes, it has a low profile that maximizes the integration with the lot. With a gentle slope, and flat area beyond, the gardens and yard can be enjoyed extensively both from the inside and out and gives the home interesting outdoor spaces.

The back yard and pool area is very private. From the road you would never know that the land is like a secret paradise. The in-ground heated gunite pool is beautifully fenced and has ample decking for varied seating spaces.  Summer evenings can be enjoyed around the pool under the stars with the big dipper framed beautifully in the sky. There are flat grassy areas and an outdoor shower.

The kitchen, dining and living rooms are open with a wood burning fireplace, skylights, a wall of windows and French door that leads to the yard and patios out back.
