    Overview

    This property offers two separate homes on one lot, providing options for rental income or multi-generational living. The front home includes recent updates such as fresh paint and a new bathroom, along with a living room featuring a bright picture window, hardwood floors, and a built-in cabinet. The attached garage has a laundry area at the back and a partially finished attic for storage. The kitchen offers room for a table, and there is a shed in the back suitable for lawn equipment or additional storage. The second home is a 2-bedroom, 1-bath residence.

    The second home is accessed through the alley. The remarks indicate the location is convenient to nearby school and shopping, with a sports center a few blocks away. The yard will be mowed soon, with a temporary delay attributed to recent weather and landscaping schedules.

    For tenants, this configuration can support separate households, while owners may benefit from having two distinct dwelling units in a single offering. The front home’s recent updates and the presence of laundry and storage features may appeal to occupants seeking turn-key readiness, and the second home’s alley access supports practical privacy and separation between the two residences.
