Long galley kitchen with spacious countertops, so much prep and storage space. Main level with bedroom w/ deep closet and spacious 3/4 bathroom. Lower level has 2 bedrooms, one with half bath and exterior access to the backyard. Step into the backyard oasis and relax in the hot tub, sauna and outdoor shower. Mature bamboo hedge and plantings give a lush and private feeling. XL covered patio for year round additional living and eating space. Rainwater collection system, approx 500 gallon tank.
