The highly flexible layout features a main level with the primary bedroom, an updated full bathroom, an updated kitchen, dining room, and a front living room that can easily convert into an additional main-floor bedroom with minimal effort. Upstairs could function as a fully independent living suite complete with its own bedroom, full bath, living room, and kitchenette, making it the ultimate setup for a tenant, multi-generational living, or a guest suite. Recent improvements offer peace of mind, including a new roof completed in July 2025, a new main water line from the road, new garage door, freshly painted walls in most of the house. This oversized 24'x24' 2 car garage provides abundant storage and extra off-street parking accessed via the convenient rear alley.
