The detached 2-car workshop offers potential for conversion into a guest house, in-law suite, or private studio. Additionally, a detached shed awaits transformation into host quarters (if you go the B&B route), a she-shed, or creative retreat
A welcoming front porch provides an ideal spot for guests to relax and enjoy the neighborhood's ambiance. The home boasts beautifully restored hardwood flooring, a formal living room, a cozy family area, a modern kitchen with stainless steel appliances, and a charming butler's pantry. A flexible room downstairs offers potential as a home office, den, or playroom. Upstairs, two generously sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms await.
