3303 EMPRESS AVENUECOBBLE HILL
Fenced pasture for the horses, cows, what have you. Trails are but a minute’s walk away and you can hike and ride for hours. The well on the property is 10 gpm and good water. There is a good size shop on the property that could be converted to house large animals. The house is private and very spacious, a huge bright sunroom that could also be used as a gym, family room or wherever your imagination takes you. The property is zoned to allow a secondary residence, and the house is big enough for a private suite for granny. The basement is a walk-out with plumbing downstairs as well. There is no shortage of covered parking for all the family members as it allows for at least 5 vehicles. And, the house is wired for a generator, just in case.
