About This Home
As of July 2025This home holds a lot of unique potential in it's 2800+ square feet! Besides the spacious living space downstairs and the three bedrooms upstairs, the home also has the potential of two studio units. The downstairs unit has its own kitchen area and full bathroom off a living space, but no exterior access besides the front door in the main house. The upstairs unit also has a kitchen area and full bath unique to its living space, along with exterior access by way of stairs in the back of the house. The upstairs studio also can be accessed through the main house if desired. This home would be ideal for a multi-generational living situation, for a home office or for an owner occupied rental with shared utilities. Great deal for a lot of possibilities!
