The property has been completely gutted due to frozen water pipes. You just need to frame and go. It was originally a 4 bedroom 3 bath single family home. Being sold as is. Perfect opportunity for the experienced buyer. All previous improvements including the attic were permitted and is reflected in the assessor square footage.
Est. $1,645 per month, based on comparable rentals

RT-4
Residential Two-Flat, Townhouse and Multi-Unit District
The primary purpose of the RT districts is to accommodate detached houses, two-flats, townhouses and low-density, multi-unit residential buildings at a density and building scale that is compatible with RS districts. The districts are intended to be applied in areas characterized by a mix of housing types. The districts are also intended to provide a gradual transition between RS districts and higher density RM districts. The RT districts are differentiated primarily on the basis of allowed density (minimum lot area per unit) and floor area ratios.
