Unique and opportunistic butterfly-style ranch, situated on an expansive corner lot that includes an attached coach house, the last of its kind! Open-concept design allows for ample natural sunlight to fill the space, thanks to recently installed soundproof windows, ceiling skylights, and exterior doors, all beneath a recently updated roof. The kitchen has been modernized with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a bay garden window mini greenhouse, ideal for year-round herb cultivation. The eat-in kitchen area and formal dining space are perfect for hosting gatherings. The oversized living room features gleaming hardwood floors and a gas-burning fireplace. The full-sized, partially finished basement includes a recreation area equipped with dry bar along with an additional crawl space storage and also has a door leading to the exterior. The attached coach house offers 1bedroom, a living room, a kitchen, and a fully remodeled bathroom, along with its own private front and rear entrances, making it easily convertible into an extension of the main residence. The exterior boasts a substantial lot size, a two-car garage, and an oversized driveway with easy access from Nina Street. Conveniently located near transportation, shopping, schools and much more!
