2-For-1 Sweetheart Deal! 2 Cozy Country Homes With Many Updates! This is one of the rare Town-approved 2-home properties in Weston. The current owner has lived here full time and loved the property back to its charming country beauty. Two legal residences afford you financial benefits and endless options: (1) Cut expenses, generate income: •Live in one home, rent the other. Or rent both. Try AirBnB! And renting is LEGAL, so you can rent without concern. •Split ownership with a friend/relative. Each gets their own house so you are close, yet with just enough separation to enjoy each other :) (2) OR just enjoy the FLEXIBILITY. •The 2nd house can be your office, art studio, in-law house, guest house, man-cave /she-cave, overflow guests, caretaker, bounce-back kids. Just enough distance to make the most of being together. •The 3-acre compound has a barn -- so you can explore an upgrade to a garage if so desired!
Room measurements are estimated, using a combination of public data and field measurements, but must be vailidated by buyer. Town has said that barn can be converted to garage, but this should still be confirmed by buyer. The MLS data format does not allow for accurate description of the 2 separate homes for sale on the property. They are both free-standing structures with separate mechanicals and structural design. Go to Virtual Tour for floor plans of the 2 homes.
