The detached garage, roughly the size of a two-car garage, includes a heated and insulated workshop area, ideal for hobbies or extra storage. An added bonus is the owned solar panel system, installed in 2012, which generates between $3,500 and $6,500 annually through a high grandfathered rate. The property is serviced by a municipal water supply, septic system (pumped every two years), and a 100-amp electrical panel with updated copper wiring.
