Charming 3-bedroom, 1 bath home invites you with a sense of freshness and possibility. Freshly painted throughout, new insulated windows, and updated bathroom. Outside, the large yard gives you room to breathe - space to garden, play, entertain, or simply relax under the open sky. 2-car detached carport, accessible from the alleyway. The most exciting feature of this property is what sits adjacent to the carport, a garage/workshop area that can provide extra storage space. This area can also be converted to an in-law suite for extended family, a stylish Airbnb to generate income month after month, or a studio apartment for a long-term tenant.
