is the 2nd driveway which loops around to the rear where there
exists a huge paved parking area (could easily park 20 cars),
a fully improved 2,000 SqFt LARGE WORKSHOP (used to be a barn),
and a separate RV Canopy Cover which has electricity.
-
- Plus there is still lots of room left
over for more improvements and/or a small orchard!
-
- The 2,000 SqFt Workshop (converted
from barn in 1997) is fully sheetrocked and includes 3 rooms
PLUS extra deep and extra wide 2 car garages each with its own
roll-up door. 220 Wiring, Overhead Flouresecent Lights and many
more conveniences make this the utlimate layout! The wiring and
sheetrock were done to code, according to the owner, but no permit
was taken out for these two items. The owner is currently working
on the final permit for the barn/workshop, which just requires
a site drawing.
