About the Listing HMAX01 - MESSICK

Whether you are looking for a large, comfortable single-family residence, a home with mother-in-law unit potential, or a multifamily investment opportunity, this vintage city home in a nice neighborhood could be your answer. The attractive 2-1/2 story sits proudly on a quarter acre corner lot and is flanked by tall, stately maple and walnut trees. The huge partly-fenced backyard and detached two-car garage complete the property. Though currently a single-family residence, with the addition of only two doors, it could easily be converted to a duplex.The main level has two bedrooms, a full bath, a large country kitchen, and a "great room" concept living room/dining room. A beautifully unique "old wood" staircase leads upstairs to the 600-square-foot attic that has already been framed for living space, offering huge expansion potential. Another staircase off the kitchen leads down to the basement which houses one bedroom, a bath, a kitchenette, a dining room, and a large living room. The kitchenette is plumbed and wired but has been gutted to make way for an all-new kitchen. Both upstairs and downstairs units have access to the laundry room. The furnace is almost new; less than a year old. A new 200 amp service was installed just three years ago. The roof and water heater are each about ten years old. The home has lots of shelving and storage.Post holes to finish the fence have already been dug. The whole house was recently plumbed for gas. So, natural gas is now available to the furnace, the water heater, the GE Monogram range, the custom-built fireplace in the living room, and the outdoor barbecue (which will stay with the house). The sellers will be taking the chicken coop. The 2-car extended garage includes a 9x19 dream shop for the mechanic or woodworker in the family. The fire pit and the two fruit trees complete the spacious back yard.Regardless of your home investment plans, with a little finish work, this gem could provide you with the perfect answer.
