Now it’s your move to elevate it.Living room with fireplace. Eat-in kitchen with everyday functionality. Flexible main-level bedroom for guests or a work-from-home setup. Upstairs sleeping quarters that create separation and privacy.Downstairs, a fully separate 2-bedroom, 1-bath apartment with its own entrance opens the door to real income potential. Rent it.
