For those who love spending time outside gardening and relaxing in the fresh air, this property presents a truly fabulous opportunity. The fenced backyard is its very own wonderland straight from a fairy tale. The huge patio is an entertainer’s dream—imagine hosting barbecues, garden parties, or just rejuvenating in the peace and quiet! All you need is some comfy outdoor furniture and maybe a string of firefly lights to create an oasis that feels miles away from it all.

A quaint stone path leads to the rest of the garden, and old world charm can be found in details like a bird bath fountain and Greek-inspired accents. The garden features plants selected specifically to attract hummingbirds, and the lush greenery is sure to attract other birds, butterflies, and honey bees, too!
