Tons of space to store your vehicles or toys in the graveled parking area. The garage/workshop is huge and divided into three main areas. First is the main section with a 12’ high overhead door and room for several vehicles or a large shop. Second area is set up for a door at each end for drive through possibilities or another storage/work area. The third portion has a lower roof section and could be inventory or storage. There is a washroom to limit runs to the house interrupting projects. Most of the utilities for the house are in this building to keep noise in the house to a minimum and maximize living space.

Several recreational opportunities are within a 1 - 1 ½ hour drive;

  1. Wildlife and Bird Watching opportunities from decks and property (deer on site)
