The setting is picture perfect, too, framed by beautiful shrubs and trees and featuring a gorgeous umbrella pine tree, colorful perennial gardens and a spacious stone terrace that is the most wonderful place to relax and entertain! The home has been lovingly cared for and is freshly painted both inside and out.
