Outside, the amenities continue with a lifetime tile roof, steel siding, vinyl windows, detached garage, storage shed, fenced garden area, and a three-season room awaiting your finishing touches. Car enthusiasts, contractors, and at home businesses will love the impressive 30x48 heated, insulated, and plumbed outbuilding offering over 1,400 sq. ft. of versatile space for vehicles, workshops, toys, and more.
