The studio unit offers an efficient layout with a well-appointed kitchen, solid surface counters, white appliances, and a tiled bath. Both lower units are equipped with electric baseboard heat. Tenants pay their own heat and electricity across all three units, helping keep owner expenses low. Major updates have been completed within the past 10 years, including roof, windows, electrical, and mechanical systems—providing peace of mind for the next owner. The property also features a nicely sized yard and a rare 4-car parking area, adding to its strong rental appeal.
