The separately recognized approximately 900 SF accessory unit features 2 bedrooms, private exterior access, interior access to the main home, and a long-term tenant currently paying $1,800/month. Per Orange P&Z, the unit is considered a legal EDU and may be rented provided either the occupant of the accessory unit OR the main residence occupant is age 55 or older. Buyers are encouraged to verify all current and future town regulations. The additional income may provide meaningful flexibility for multi-generational living, extended family, or potentially assist with mortgage qualification depending on loan program and lender guidelines. Importantly, this is NOT simply a "5-bedroom house." The property functions as a true dual-living setup with a fully independent accessory residence above the attached 3-car garage, creating a unique home-within-a-home environment rarely available in Orange. The main residence showcases soaring vaulted ceilings, warm wood finishes, and a dramatic fireplace anchoring the living room. The updated kitchen features white shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a gas range. The main level includes 2 bedrooms and a full bath, while
