Property Description

You'll think it is too good to be true - this home has a rare advantage: a 1 bedroom, 1 bath mother-in-law suite with its own exterior entrance. The current owners rent the suite furnished on Furnished Finder for $900 a month. Most guests are traveling nurses, and it has been fully booked every month. The sellers' rental history records are available to buyers. Use the suite for steady rental income, a place for extended family or guests, or a private home office. When you don't need it as a separate unit, it opens back up to the main house. Built in 1948, the house was completely renovated in 2020 with a new roof and new septic tank, updated kitchen and baths. Permits are available. The HVAC system was replaced in 2021, and crawl space work was done in 2023 and enhanced in 2026. The main living area is open concept, and the house has wood floors throughout. In the living room, an expansive set of built in shelves was custom installed. The kitchen has granite countertops, and all the stainless steel appliances stay with the home. Altogether there are 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, counting the suite. The primary suite has a full bath with a dual vanity and a walk-in shower. The two other bedrooms share a jack-and-jill bath, which goes with the suite when it's rented. The separate laundry room has storage, and a washer and dryer can be provided if needed (not the units shown in the photos). There's also an oversized single-car garage with a long driveway that can accommodate several vehicles. The garage has a automatic garage door opener with remote, separate side entry and is wired. Out back, the deck gives you room to relax or entertain. The lawn slopes gently down from the house, privacy fences runs along one side adjacent to the garage, and woods fill the back of the lot, so it feels private and secluded. Even so, you're only minutes from town and an easy walk to the nearest public bus stop! Added bonus - there's no HOA nor restrictive covenants.
