While a change of use permit will be needed for changes in use or to the structure, the zone is MR-1 with many permitted and conditional uses allowed.

The ground floor is currently a 3-station Salon with a full bathroom, office/entry area, updated flooring, tasteful décor and it also has an existing kitchen and laundry area. While a change of use permit will be needed for changes in use or to the structure, the zone is MR-1 with many permitted and conditional uses allowed. It's worth a discussion with the city zoning department about your proposed activity. The existing upstairs apartment is sweet with vaulted area over the kitchen and living rooms plus 2 bedrooms, bathroom and huge back deck. Lovely covered front porch, shed, paved driveway, fresh exterior paint, standing seam roof, new oil tank, more!
