Public Remarks: Two living spaces in one beautifully updated home! This unique property features a walkout basement with a private entrance facing the driveway, offering a cool, modern living space, while the upper level showcases a charming French cottage style with its own main entrance. Renovated in 2022, the exterior of the home includes major upgrades such as new footer drains, professional landscaping and hardscaping, a retaining wall, and a large asphalt driveway. Both levels feature thoughtfully designed kitchens with tile backsplashes, while the main kitchen includes granite countertops. The primary bathroom has been fully updated with tiled walls and a glass shower door. Additional upgrades include refinished oak hardwood floors on the main level, luxury vinyl flooring in the basement, vinyl windows, and premium custom 2.5'' vinyl blinds throughout. Each floor is equipped with its own electric HVAC system for optimal comfort. An unfinished basement area, accessible from both levels, provides a dedicated laundry space and ample storage. The home also offers abundant closet space, a large, detached shed on a concrete slab, and a 50-amp RV/EV hookup conveniently located by the driveway. Currently operating as a mid-term rental generating $3,492 per month (including utilities, furnishings, and internet), with leases in place through July 31. This property presents a fantastic opportunity for investors or owner-occupants--live on one level and rent the other, continue renting both, or for homeowners wanting separate space for family or guests. This is on the same street as Baker's Creek greenway and bike park. Previously owner-occupied for two years prior to its current rental use. Furniture is not included but select pieces may be available for separate purchase.
