System updates include electrical, plumbing, roof, fresh interior & exterior paint, newer furnace, and hot water tank. Street-to-alley access w/rare 5-car off-street parking, well-designed storage & generous closets. The finished lower level offers a “kitchen-ready” area, ¾ bath, gear room, & flexible spaces for guests, work-from-home, or income potential.
