The original, hand-hewn beams run through the entirety of the home, and the present-day garage sits in the exact location of the original barn. There, you can enjoy a family gathering space with foosball and games – kites, yard size Connect 4, yard darts, and croquet.

Spend the evening gathered around the firepit, enjoying the spectacular 180-degree sunset, and showering off at the outdoor shower underneath the stars while listening to nature sounds including a nearby babbling brook.
