The reinforced concrete floor (4.5") is built for heavy use, and the 10,000 lb vehicle lift (negotiable) makes it an ideal space for auto restoration, storage, or a studio. Additional highlights include a vented skylight, updated LED lighting, shingled roof, external utility hookups for a future pool, and separate metering for convenience.

This is more than a home-it's a lifestyle property. Here, architectural charm and lasting craftsmanship are paired with peaceful views of wildlife and the serenity of a natural retreat. And for the true enthusiast, the crown jewel awaits: a world-class garage and workshop just steps away, offering the space, versatility, and capability to match your passion.
