About the Listing SAMP35 - 3021628

This Charming home has multiple possibilities depending on the potential new owners’ current needs or desires. The entire property adds up to five bedrooms, four full baths, and three full kitchens, plus a coveted brick driveway parking as well as a two-car detached garage. The last two owners keep the entire property as one family property. The new owner can mix and match configurations as residential and rental in multiple ways. The main house has three bedrooms, and two full baths. There are two, one-bedroom, one full bath attached apartments which both have full kitchens and living/dining combinations with fireplaces. Both apartments and the main home all have separate utilities, separate private entrances, and separate addresses. All three living areas may be long term rental units according to the town. Or the new owner could rent any combination of the three units and live in one or two of the possible combinations and still have downtown walkable rental income in a University Town. The upper apartment can be accessed from the main house by leaving a door unlocked or opened at the landing between the first floor and the second-floor stairway, which perfectly extends the homes living space, or as an in-law suite or could be an entirely separate income-producing long term rental apartment by simply closing and locking a door. The second apartment could be for guests, in-law suite, or as an income producing long term rental unit.
