About this House

Welcome to your new home, short-term or long-term rental investment! This gorgeous ranch home on a quiet block just a stone's throw from the Boulder Turnpike offers TWO complete living spaces, making it ideal for a multigenerational living situation, a totally private roommate setup, or any number of other scenarios!! The main floor contains three beds and two baths, including a large primary suite with newly remodeled ensuite bathroom; a full kitchen, laundry, and two large living/family rooms. The basement includes an additional two large bedrooms, a newly remodeled 3/4 bath, and a brand-new FULL kitchen, with the exception of a stove/oven (a portable cooktop can easily be used instead). Great for potential short-or-long-term rental, multigenerational living, mother-in-law suite, or for the house hacker who wants to subsidize their mortgage and pick up a great portfolio builder! Basement has been nearly entirely remodeled; basement kitchen, flooring, and tile/vanity/shower in bathroom are all new. Main floor has new wood floors in kitchen & living room, as well as a newly remodeled primary bath, new vanity/mirror in 2nd bath, new carpet in bedrooms, and new paint throughout the interior. Home has both central AC AND swamp cooler! The upstairs & downstairs are currently separate spaces with separate entryways; however, they could be easily reconnected into one continuous space with the addition of a door in the main floor kitchen. Come and see this gem before it's gone - opportunities like this don't come up every day!
