This charming home with a detached cottage (ADU) is perfectly situated on desirable West 3rd Avenue, offering easy access to schools, downtown, the river trail, parks, and endless hiking and biking paths. The property is designated as a "legal non-conforming use" which allows BOTH units to be rented.

Recent improvements include new stucco; windows; exterior trim, windows and doors were professionally painted for both structure; tree trimming; and new gas oven in front house.

The sidewalk was replaced along West Third Ave. The fenced backyard features a lawn, mature trees and shrubbery. A long driveway allows for plenty of parking or the potential to add a garage.
