    Plum Crooked Poet’s Cottage on Main Street in Marshall is a successful niche short-term rental property affording guests a downtown historical lodging option. Very low cost maintenance, operating expenses and taxes. On offer fully furnished and stocked, the property is a downtown favorite on airbnb and has a robust booking history. A prime Main Street location on the North end of town with the adjacent second old homesite also included for an acre of road frontage. The adjacent lot has direct access from the main driveway bridge but also has an old bridge site which could be replaced for easy in and out accessibility for multiple parking spots.The cottage was originally 2 bedroom but we converted the 2nd into a dining nook and could be reconverted to a 2nd bedroom.
