French doors lead from the dining area to a backyard deck and landscaped yard with mature fruit trees, creating an expansive feel and an ideal environment for entertaining.
With only 791 square feet of living space, the main home is quite compact, which may be a constraint for families or those requiring larger indoor rooms.
The list price of $1.35M represents a premium price point relative to the small footprint, potentially challenging the appraisal value for some financing options.
