What's special

There is a 6th unit that can be added to the property. There is a door and framing up for the new unit, but some work is required to get the unit finished and certified. We are marketing the property as a 5-plex with the ability to add a 6th unit. The 2-car detached garage sits on the west side of the property and is currently being used for landlord storage. A new owner could clear out the storage and allow tenant vehicles to park in it.
