Property Description

Outstanding redevelopment, ADU, or investment opportunity in sought-after Two Creeks steps away from light rail in Lakewood. The home qualifies for **$17,500 in grant money** towards down payment and closing costs (with preferred lender and household income under $210,000). Positioned on a generous lot of 8,886 SF, this property is zoned MR-U (Mixed Use Residential Urban)—offering flexibility for future ADU, expansion, or a full scrape/build depending on buyer plans and city approval. With new density and builder-friendly zoning updates taking effect 1/1/26, this location checks every box for an investor, developer, or long-term planner. Existing home is a remodeled ranch featuring 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, attached garage, and an expansive fenced yard with two sheds, raised garden beds, and a deck for entertaining. Updates include new kitchen, appliances, flooring, and paint, plus roof (2021), tankless water heater (2021), and most windows replaced (2021). Minutes to light rail, Belmar, Sloan’s Lake, Tennyson, and Downtown. Live in, rent out, add on—or build new in a rapidly evolving urban corridor. Buyer to verify zoning and use.
