    What's special

    Welcome home to this charming and versatile 2-3 bedroom home, perfectly situated on the north side of Eighth Street, placing it in the Eastern Elementary School district. The standout feature is the incredible 274-foot-deep, private backyard. Fully fenced and offering endless possibilities, there's plenty of room to build your dream garage, create an amazing outdoor entertaining space, or—with the appropriate zoning approvals—even explore splitting the lot to build a second home. Opportunities like this are hard to find. Inside, you'll appreciate the convenience of main-floor living with one bedroom on the main floor and the second bedroom upstairs. In addition there is a bonus space that could serve as a third bedroom, home office, playroom, or hobby space. The spacious mudroom offers even more versatility and could become the perfect office, drop zone, or additional living area to fit your lifestyle. The kitchen features concrete countertops, while newer vinyl windows help reduce outside noise and improve energy efficiency. Low-maintenance vinyl siding makes exterior upkeep a breeze. Step outside to enjoy the oversized backyard complete with a storage shed for your bikes, beach gear, lawn equipment, and all your outdoor toys. Location is everything, and this home delivers. Walk to the beach, grab groceries just out your back door, or stop by Potter's for fresh cookies. Whether you're looking for your first home, a vacation getaway, or a property with future investment potential, this one offers exceptional flexibility, convenience, and room to grow. Don't miss your chance to own one of the deepest lots around with endless possibilities!
