Outside, enjoy a generous backyard, sizeable deck, and scenic setback views of the Saint John River. Recent improvements, including a new roof and added insulation, provide added comfort and peace of mind. The detached two-car garage and storage shed give ample space for vehicles, recreational equipment, hobbies, and projects.
