What was once a garage has been thoughtfully transformed into a fully permitted 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom residence, completed in 2023 with all-new electrical, plumbing, and interior finishes. Year-round comfort is provided by a natural gas fireplace, mini-split heating and cooling, and an on-demand gas water heater. The seller's eye for design sets this home apart; refinished 1955 Youngstown Steel MCM cabinets, custom vintage countertops, and a dual-color enameled porcelain steel bathtub deliver character that cannot be replicated. Exceptional storage throughout includes hall cabinets, bedroom closets with additional shelving, and attic access via a newly installed stairway, plus a separate utility sink and stackable washer/dryer area. Hardwired smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and an outdoor sprinkler system offer added peace of mind. Positioned at the edge of the Carpenter Trails trailhead system, this property delivers a secluded, nature-adjacent feel while remaining fully in town. The fully fenced backyard features a patio and maturing pear and peach trees. An ideal primary residence, lock-and-leave retreat, or short-term rental opportunity. Call for a showing today!
