A standout feature of the property is the custom barn and paddock built in 2021 with a concrete floor, power and water, creating excellent functionality for equestrian use, storage, equipment, hobbies, or additional property needs. Adding even more versatility is an approx. 1,000 sq ft attached mother-in-law suite/separate living quarters with private entrance, full kitchen and bath, plus access from the main garage area—ideal for extended family, guests, office, fitness space, or other permitted uses.
