Welcome to 1303 Calkins Road, a unique opportunity offering comfortable living with built-in income potential. This 4-bedroom, 2.5 bath raised ranch sits on almost an acre corner lot with excellent visibility on Route 20 and is zoned for highway business use. The open floor plan features a spacious kitchen with island, open to the large living room and dining space. The bright sunroom off the primary bedroom is perfect for a home office, sitting room, or hobby space. Enjoy a private backyard and one-car garage along with ample parking. The finished lower level (approx. 594 sq. ft.) is currently leased to a long-term business tenant generating $900 per month to help offset your mortgage. Looking ahead, the business space offers excellent potential for your own home-based business. While the home could benefit from cosmetic updates, the flexible layout, rental income, and future possibilities make this a truly rare opportunity.

The Highway Business Zone is intended to allow auto-accommodating commercial development in areas along highways that have already been predominantly built in this manner and in some new highway areas. This zone allows for a range of retail and service businesses with a local or regional market. Due to the size and scope of these businesses, they are not in character with the business zones located within the central business areas of the Town. These businesses are expected to be auto-accommodating. The zone's development standards will promote attractive development and more open and pleasant street appearance. It is hoped that the resulting development will be aesthetically pleasing for motorists, pedestrians and the businesses themselves
