What's special
Unique Opportunity! This property consists of a 1,064 foot house and a 360 foot detached living structure (apartment). 1,424 of finished space between the 2 buildings. The apartment was previously used for a summer residence and is basically set up like a studio apartment (without a heat source). It would make a great teen/kid hangout, man cave/she-shed, or mother-in-law apartment. The home has been in the family for a long time so there will be some updating that will likely need to be done. However, some of the bigger items have been redone. There were new roofs put on both structures in 2019. The house had a newer 90+ furnace and A/C installed in 2014. The house water heater was replaced in 2023. There are 3 full baths on the property. The main floor bath was redone about 5 years ago and is really nice. There is an older basement style bathroom downstairs and also 1 in the apartment. There is an attached garage with a driveway off Taft Rd and alley access for parking in the rear near the apartment. One cool feature of the home is the huge, covered porch which is great for relaxing and entertaining. There are 2 sheds, a small fenced section and Petsafe invisible fencing around most of the yard. This type of property is hard to find so don’t miss it!
