Looking outward from garage at Caro Drive

— From mid-garage, looking out. (Moving is messy!) —

There’s plenty of extra space to the left and behind you in this garage. It has an automatic garage door opener, used by remotes or by a number pad to punch your code outside by the walk-in door.


Back of garage at Caro Drive

— From mid-garage, looking toward deepest wall —

The garage is especially deep, allowing room for a workshop or other usage, even with cars parked. Additionally, there’s about six feet of extra room to one side of the garage door, running the length of the building.


Fenced yard at Caro Drive

— Fenced yard beneath carport, entered by gate or downstairs bedroom door —

Approaching house at end of Caro Drive

— House and cabin near end of driveway —

After a quiet drive of almost half a mile through the forest, over a bridge, and along a park-like approach, you can see the complex just ahead.


Well house at Caro Drive

— Well house —

This well house can serve double purpose as a tool shed. Architecturally, it matches the other buildings in the complex.


Detached garage at Caro Drive

— Garage —

Only a few steps from the porch is a detached garage, angled inward toward the house and cabin. It is architecturally in harmony with the other buildings. It is very deep, allowing it to accommodate two cars and a workshop. Additionally, it is widened on the side with the walk-in door, providing even move space.


Front porch at Caro Drive

— Front porch —

Originally only a 10-inch step-up stoop served as the porch. On both sides were very narrow sitting areas. I had a raised outside entry built from stones found on the property and extended the railings at jutting angles.

The swing in the foreground stays with the property — as do two others that overlook the lake from the house and cabin balconies.


Front porch stoop at Caro Drive

— I had the main entry platform built from flat stones found on the property —


Reflections in creek at Caro Drive

— When water flows, reflections in creek can be magical —


Chairs on small bridge at Caro Drive

— Chairs by small bridge —

I added this stone and concrete bridge along a path so you could walk or ride across. Sometimes, I sat here and listened to the stream flow underneath.


Creek between bridges at Caro Drive

— Creek flowing between golf cart and driveway bridges —

What’s the catch? None, really, except what I describe. Prices here are still catching up to the rest of the country.

Yes, I agree that it’s a bargain, but only if this is what you’re looking for. The 41-acre retreat was agent listed for $740,000 in 2012.

Please read my ramblings about my adventure, the property, the area, and the lake before you decide. I hope to sell to someone who appreciates my retreat and will be happy here.
