Expansive Views | Full Renovation | Multigenerational LayoutMinutes from Mt. Tabor and Montavilla this location is desirable to say the least! Perched above the city with 180 degree views, this remodeled home seamlessly blends 1920s charm with clean, modern finishes offering three levels of flexible living and endless potential.The main floor is drenched in natural light and showcases refinished hardwoods, a gas fireplace, elegant built-ins, and a beautifully redesigned kitchen with quartz countertops, custom tile, and a sunny nook. French doors off the living room lead to beautiful views on the deck that is perfect for sunset cocktails or morning coffee.Upstairs, the luxurious primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with its own balcony, spa-like bath with walk-in shower, double vanity, and room for a sitting area or workspace.The finished lower level feels like a self-contained apartment complete with its own updated kitchen, full bath, living/dining space, and private exterior entrance. Whether you need space for guests, extended family, or a home-based business, this level is a true asset.A detached garage with a powered/plumbed studio below offers even more flexibility think (ADU, office, or workshop buyer to verify). All on an oversized lot with mature landscaping and plenty of room to garden, gather, or grow.Move-in ready, turn-key, and thoughtfully updated throughout with postcard views and flexible living for today’s lifestyle.

Holy Cow! What an opportunity for a skilled buyer or investor! Amazing VIEW! 180-degree view of city, mountain(s)! GREAT BONES! The home is livable, but definitely a diamond in the rough! Possibilities range from a single-family home, with or without multi-gen living space(s), up to a 3-4 plex depending on your plans and improvements! Main level includes original charm, LOTS of natural light, kitchen with eating nook, 2 beds with hardwoods (one under carpet), hardwoods in entry, foyer dining, living rooms, gas FP, deck access, full bath. Upper level currently an owner suite with balcony, view, jetted tub, shower, kitchen space could use a facelift or remove it for storage space. Lower level family room could also be a bedroom, bonus area(s) for storage or office, full bath, full kitchen could use a facelift. All three levels can be accessed from inside and outside. 2-car detached garage has space underneath for studio apartment? home office? SF is NOT included in the listing, power and plumbing are there, but there is moisture intrusion so that space is currently not livable! Oil tank has been decommissioned, but gas service is present so potential for future conversion. Large lot, plenty of garden space! Fenced area for pets. Truly a unique opportunity and a very rare setting/view for this part of the city! Be sure to check out the Zillow 3D tour! Estate, being sold "as-is". [Home Energy Score = 4.
