    This well-maintained mixed-use building combines a ground-level retail space with an established tenant and a spacious, renovated two-level residential unit with five bedrooms. The property includes off-street parking for added convenience. Building systems include natural gas heating, an updated hot water heater, and a commercial-grade fire alarm and sprinkler system.
