Elevating the significance of the property are handmade granite and concrete walls, constructed painstakingly over five years, separating a long driveway and two entrance bridges to the first and second floor entrances.
Meanwhile, the four-car garage, workshop and multiple storage rooms create the perfect space for the serious hobbyist, collector or tradesperson.
