The immense 800 square foot deck is a sight in itself. Makes the perfect cozy spot to cook on the barbecue, eat, sip coffee and feel the warmth of the propane fire pit as you snuggle with your loved one on the outdoor furniture. One level is covered in case of rain or snow.
You'll have the entire house to yourself. All the rooms you will have access to are on the first floor. Kitchen, bathroom and living room where you'll sleep in a queen sized bed. (the upstairs part of the house is closed off).
For relaxing in the hot tub step off the main deck and walk 100 feet to the 'spa room' which is a separate structure with large picture windows allowing you to soak and relax in privacy and protection from the colder windy weather.
