Property Description

This cute little bungalow hides a surprise in the back - a whole separate house! TWO houses - a unique opportunity for multigenerational living, property sharing, guest quarters, or a working-from-home suite, located close to hospitals, university, and downtown. The original bungalow is a beautifully renovated (2021) two bed, two bath with 9' ceilings and hardwood. Sunlight fills the living room, opened to maximize the house's space, and features a gas fireplace and recessed lighting. Walking into the bedroom area, the primary suite is to the right, with a classically tiled bathroom, large walk-in shower and two closets. At the front of the house is the light-filled second bedroom. Adding to the ambiance is the Victorian-style tile, clawfoot tub, and pedestal sink of the hall bath. Bold classic green cabinets fill the eat-in kitchen, while white quartz countertops and large windows keep the space airy and neutral. The stainless gas range and double-door refrigerator stay with the house. Through the kitchen, one step down, is a large mudroom with laundry hookups, storage space, and a utility sink. Exiting the house from the mudroom, curved stone steps lead to the idyllic private patio, fitted between the two houses; just the right size for dinner entertaining and outdoor movie watching. The second house, an ADU, new in 2023, had no expense spared and boasts Hardiplank exterior, extra-large Marvin casement windows, craftsman awning details, and even a hot and cold outdoor faucet. Walking in, you're greeted with a dramatic vaulted great room with a beamed ceiling and loft overlook. A full petite kitchen, with stainless appliances, custom cabinets, and a movable island, makes this a full home. This space lives big! The current owner hosted a 22-person Friendsgiving here last year! A ladder leads to the loft, which can be a fun guest space or mini studio with lots of under-eave storage. In the back half of the ADU, there is a bedroom, a full shower bath with a stackable laundry area (this washer & dryer stay) and an additional room that could be used as a dressing space or storage. Behind the ADU is a dog run area and a large gambrel-roof shed with double doors. This home is truly treasured and has been the source of pride and pleasure for the owner for the last 5 years. Come and see this lovely in-town two-houses on one lot. ( Listing agents are related to Sellers.)
