Property Description
Live, Work & Thrive in One Unique Space! Here's your perfect opportunity to combine home and business in one convenient location. This distinctive property features a 2-bedroom single-family farmhouse with versatile commercial potential. Step inside through the back entrance into a cozy mudroom/pantry. The kitchen, remodeled in 2012, boasts updated cabinetry, drywall, and flooring. Adjacent to the kitchen is a cozy dining room with a large closet for extra storage. The main level also includes a dedicated office-ideal for remote work-and a comfortable living room with space for a full couch and large TV. Hardwood floors run throughout, and the entertainment center in the living room stays with the home. Enjoy peaceful mornings or relaxing evenings on the enclosed front porch. Upstairs, you'll find a generous primary bedroom with two walk-in closets, a loft area with built-in storage (closet system for bedroom #2), a large bathroom, and a second bedroom. The full unfinished basement includes a workshop area for hobbies or business use. Outside, the property shines with a 36x48 outbuilding (built in 2000) equipped with its own heating and cooling-perfect for a studio, workshop, or storage. A separate storefront building offers endless possibilities: run your business from home, rent out the storefront and residence, or use the space for creative ventures. The fenced yard is ideal for children or pets. Located on a high-traffic street and zoned LC (Light Commercial District), this property is a rare find for entrepreneurs. The current residential use can remain with the sale, but note: if the home is damaged beyond 50% of its value, reconstruction must comply with LC zoning. Roof replaced in 2007; windows replaced in 2001; Siding replaced in 2003; Home HVAC system replaced in 2000. Whether you're launching a business, expanding a home-based operation, or investing in a flexible live/work space-this property delivers. Don't miss out. Bring your buyers and explore the possibilities! Please call the listing agent with owner's closing date preferences.
