Fully remodeled and move in ready, this home blends modern updates with flexible living space and future potential. Interior and exterior paint, new flooring, brand new stainless steel appliances, updated plumbing, and two beautifully remodeled bathrooms have already been completed, allowing you to simply move in and enjoy. The main level offers 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, while the fully finished upstairs creates additional living flexibility perfect for a third bedroom, home office, den, or creative space. A back porch leads to a clean and spacious basement that could serve as an entertainment area, hobby room, or additional storage. A standout feature of the property is the oversized 620 square foot detached garage. Already equipped with its own electrical meter and water and sewer plumbing, the space offers exceptional potential for a future DADU, guest quarters, workshop, or studio. With extensive upgrades, versatile living areas, and rare ADU potential, this property offers opportunity for homeowners, investors, or anyone seeking space, flexibility, and long term value.
