What's special

Eastside Cottage With Room To Grow! This sweet 1Bd. 1Ba. will surprise you! It is bright, updated, and feels very open. It is at the forefront of the lot so there is a long driveway to the detached one- car garage, and big open space in the back of the lot. The lot backs up to alley access. Maybe add another home in the back, and make the cottage an ADU? Or add on to this charming cottage, and build a large garage in the back? Maybe you always wanted a sunny open lot to plant those fruit trees? The convenient location offers quick access for commuting, or head to downtown for the live music, eateries, and shopping. Come explore and see what you think!
