This classic 1955 home is on the market for the first time in 40 years with tons of original features and charm.

Spacious, functional daylight basement could provide the perfect opportunity for future MIL/ADU - just needs some finishing touches. One car attached garage, RV parking, and additional detached 2-car garage. This home provides so much investment opportunity (possibly subdivide?) and room to grow.
