Built in 2007, this week’s GoToby.com featured House of the Week is a “one of a kind.” It’s packed with features you can use. When the square footage of a home is stated by real estate professionals, they typically refer to the square footage “under air” (heated and cooled). That doesn’t work with this house. It has 5,240 square feet of living area “under air,” plus a 1,200 square foot garage, also “under air.”

MANLY – NOT YOUR EVERYDAY GARAGE

The garage has its own HVAC unit, an epoxy floor and is tied into the home’s central vacuum system. The garage is double depth to accommodate four vehicles. It’s equipped with a two-ton A-frame lift, wall-mounted storage cabinets, a work bench, bench grinder and vise. The stained wood garage doors are insulated.

There are also two adjacent parcels available totaling 1.32 acres and providing a total of 240 feet of Intracoastal Waterway frontage . The owner has obtained state and federal permits approving drawings to develop a 125-foot large-yacht basin for the combined properties providing direct access to the ICW’s 12 foot deep channel with no SSL lease fees or easement requirements. If the adjacent lots are not purchased the property must be legally subdivided prior to closing.
