Outside, a beautifully landscaped rear garden serves as a tranquil sanctuary, perfect for escaping the urban energy of downtown. Under a canopy of mature redwoods, you will find fragrant ferns, flowering perennials, a spacious patio, and a detached cedar-sided craft studio. This is a property to truly cherish.
