Many updates have been accomplished with new flooring, refreshed kitchen cabinets, farm sink, new bathrooms and the HVAC is only 4 years old. The setting is remarkably private for an in town location and there are winter mountain views. The property adjoins the Southern Railway which is no longer running. Lots of possibilities for the yard, leave it a lawn or add perennial and/or vegetable gardens.
