About the Listing REKL1 - 3109753

FULLY DETACHED STANDALONE MULTI-UNIT WITH EXPANSION & VALUE-ADD POTENTIAL. Exceptional versatility for owner-occupants looking to house-hack or investors seeking a multi-faceted value-add asset. Positioned on an expansive, fully fenced yard, this independent standalone building offers privacy, private grounds, and clear avenues for income and space optimization. **HOUSE-HACKING & RESIDENTIAL UPSIDE:** Live in one unit while renting the other to market-rate or housing choice voucher tenants to directly offset monthly mortgage costs. The existing footprint features a rear extension that provides a straightforward structural pathway to convert units into two-bedroom floor plans. Additionally, the property includes a very large, unimproved basement with multiple side windows and a private rear entrance, offering substantial square footage for future buildout, workshop space, or dedicated storage. **ALTERNATIVE USE FLEXIBILITY:** Situated on a generous lot under RA-1 zoning, buyers can also explore adaptive re-use options, such as converting the facility into a daycare center or child development facility (subject to Board of Zoning Adjustment special exception, zoning compliance, and OSSE licensing). --- **DISCLAIMER:** Buyer and buyer's agent/broker are solely responsible for performing all due diligence to verify property details, existing footprint, square footage, zoning regulations, allowable uses, conversion feasibility, and permitting requirements with the District of Columbia Department of Buildings (DOB) and Board of Zoning Adjustment (BZA).
