The full walk-out basement boasts high ceilings and Pella sliding doors that step out to an entertainer's yard featuring flat table land that gently flows into the ravine. Complete with a garage, private multi-car driveway, and wonderful curb appeal, this magnificent property offers endless possibilities.
