Two units, nearly half an acre, and a 3-car garage-this Watseka property offers flexibility inside and out. Located at 436 E. Cherry St., this traditional two-story features approximately 1,950 square feet of living space configured as two separate units. The approximately 1,100-square-foot main-level unit offers 2 bedrooms and 1.5 baths, while the approximately 850-square-foot upper unit provides 1 bedroom and 1 bath with its own exterior access. Inside, generous windows bring natural light into the living spaces, while classic wood trim and doors add character. Both units feature their own kitchen spaces, creating a versatile setup for an owner occupant, extended living arrangement, or investment use. Outside, the approximately 0.44-acre lot is a standout, offering a spacious lawn framed by mature trees. A long driveway leads to the large detached 3-car garage, providing valuable parking, storage, hobby, or workshop possibilities. Adding to the appeal, the home received a new roof last year. Whether you're looking to expand your investment portfolio or searching for a property offering two distinct living spaces, 436 E. Cherry St. presents an uncommon combination of space, flexibility, garage capacity, and a sizable lot.
