About This Home
Prime Hwy 290 Frontage | 2 Home Investment Opportunity
Exceptional 1/3 acre property featuring two separate homes plus a detached garage. Ideal for investors, small business owners, or anyone seeking strong income potential. Located directly on Hwy 290 with excellent visibility and access, this property offers flexible use for residential, commercial, or mixed-use purposes. The main home includes 3 bedrooms, 1 bath, and a bonus room. The secondary structure is approximately 700 sq. ft. with 2 bedrooms and 1 bath. This would be perfect for additional rental income or an office conversion. The square footage listed on MLS reflects only the primary home. Both structures need TLC, including roof and foundation repairs, but the location and layout create tremendous upside for renovation, redevelopment, or long-term holding. A rare chance to own prime frontage in one of the area’s fastest-growing corridors.

About the Listing Agent
I’ve been around real estate nearly my entire life, growing up in a family deeply rooted in the industry. Some of my earliest memories are of folding flyers for brochure boxes and helping set up open house signs during my elementary school years.
