Situated on a desirable corner lot, this property offers unique features that are increasingly hard to find, including convenient alley access to a detached garage and a spacious outbuilding that, with the proper approvals, could be transformed into an accessory dwelling unit (ADU)—ideal for rental income, multi-generational living, or a private guest retreat.
