This space can be easily reconfigured along with either the garden apartment or top floor unit as an owners duplex. The garden floor is truly a sanctuary. A king size bedroom divided by French glass-pane doors help filter light flow into the large open plan living room, dining room, and kitchen joining natural light from the window and direct door access leading to the beautifully landscaped backyard. The spacious bathroom offers double sink vanity and a streamlined sunken shower tub. In-unit washer dryer and dishwasher tie in the features of desired modern conveniences. Both this unit as well as the top make great rental income. There is a sizable storage basement.
