About this House
MULTI-GENERATIONAL LIVING -or- live in one part of the house and RENT the other. This is the ultimate house hack! NEW interior finishes features a clean, updated aesthetic with brand-new flooring, fresh paint, and a modernized kitchen equipped with quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances. The home’s primary strength lies in its functional two-level configuration. With living spaces distributed across both floors, the floor plan is well-suited for multi-generational living or for those seeking a dedicated guest area. The lower level provides the necessary separation and privacy to serve as an independent living space or a rental opportunity to help offset a mortgage. Both bathrooms have been updated with contemporary fixtures, ensuring the home is move-in ready. Outside, the large, level lot provides a versatile outdoor area, complemented by an attached tandem 2-car garage that offers additional storage or workshop space. Situated with easy access to commuter routes and local amenities, this property is a versatile choice for buyers looking for a home that can adapt to various living arrangements.
We estimate this home will sell faster than 81% nearby.
