Outside, the .39 acre property offers space for gardening, slow mornings with coffee, and summer dinners that turn into sitting outside until dark. A two-car garage and separate workshop leave room for projects along the way. Slabtown, a little breathing room, and a house with considerably more going on than its street view suggests.
