Opportunity meets versatility in this thoughtfully designed property featuring a successful, fully furnished casita with a private entrance. Previously operated as a turnkey rental through Airbnb and Furnished Finder, the casita attracted midterm tenants including traveling professionals and contractors who often stayed three to six months, with shorter Airbnb bookings filling the gaps. This rental history was achieved through platform listings alone, without additional marketing.The main residence offers three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and two distinct living areas, creating flexibility for entertaining, working from home, or simply enjoying extra space.Outside, the expansive carport accommodates approximately five to six vehicles. A powered workshop with a loft provides even more possibilities for hobbies, creative projects, workspace, or additional storage. Major improvements include a roof and refrigerated air system, both replaced in 2022.Whether you are looking for rental income, space for extended guests, or a property that can adapt as your needs change, this home offers options that are hard to find. The seller is motivated and ready to make a move!
