OPPORTUNITY! Stop paying rent and start building equity in your own home. This rare gem has THREE LOTS to spread out on!! Situated on a corner across the street from Hill Park, the property sits on three city lots, offering an oversized footprint, a detached garage, and rare elbow room. There is room to build an extra garage or she-shed, put in a garden or sell one lot for extra income! This move-in ready bright and cheery 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom home is tastefully updated and features a fresh, modern feel with updated luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, updated bathroom and a convenient main-floor utility room. The water heater and sump pump are only one year old, and the HVAC is only two years old. Step out onto the custom-built deck for entertaining or relaxing, with massive potential for yard expansion, extra parking, or future improvements. Houses with property to spread out, have your privacy and are less than paying rent are a rare find. The lot on the corner used to have a house on it.
