Two houses on one lot! Some properties make you choose between character and utility. Not this one. In front, a classic 2BD/1BA cottage greets you with an inviting open living/dining area, two sunny bedrooms, an updated kitchen and bath, plus an attached garage that functions as bonus space. Here's the surprise… Out back is a roughly 600 sq ft modern studio ADU with vaulted ceilings and flooded with natural light, designed by notable architect Rocio Romero (built 2019). Think: rental income, in-law unit, work-from-home space, you name it. The large lot offers tons of usable outdoor space, with yard in front, yard in back, and a central grassy area that naturally becomes a gathering spot. Professionally landscaped, low maintenance, and easy to enjoy. Thoughtfully selected Heath and Fireclay tile give each space a distinct and playful feel. 220V outlet next to driveway ready for EV charging. Located just blocks from favorites like Catahoula Coffee, Tacos El Tucan, and Factory Bar, plus convenient access to Highway 80. Two homes, one incredible opportunity.
