Updated bath with tub, wood floors, vinyl windows, washer, dryer, & ceilng fan. Tucked in the backyard is a detached bonus creative retreat equipped with a heat pump, queen Murphy bed, and full bathroom, this space is the ultimate creative escape or home office. The separate alley entrance and private gate provide easy access, making it a perfect 'bonus'. The yard is absolutely delightful with a covered patio designed for year-round enjoyment, featuring a chicken coop, raised garden beds, and an established mini-orchard of fig, apple, and Asian pear trees.
