Mechanic's Dream with a Heated 4+ Stall Garage! Welcome to 701 E. 27th St. S. in Newton! This well-maintained 2-bedroom, 1-full-bath home offers 912 square feet of comfortable main-level living, plus a full 912-square-foot basement and an impressive 1,280-square-foot insulated and heated garage with 4+ stalls. The kitchen opens into the living room for a comfortable, connected feel, while the main-level stackable washer and dryer offer convenience with the option to move the laundry downstairs. The basement includes a shower and toilet already in place, offering the potential to finish a second bathroom, along with nice shelving that stays with the home. The garage is truly a standout feature, offering plenty of room for vehicles, projects, storage, and more. It is heated by a wood burner, which is currently not hooked up, or by portable heaters that stay with the property. The garage also includes a nice shop/office area with a refrigerator, making it an ideal setup for a mechanic, hobbyist, contractor, or anyone needing substantial workspace. Recent improvements include a new disposal, new sump pump, and new roof, gutters, and siding on both the house and garage in 2023. Outside, enjoy a nice-sized patio and a spacious corner lot with a drive-through driveway that provides convenient access from the property. With an incredible amount of garage and workspace, flexible living areas, ample storage, and a great corner-lot setting,
