The large, partially finished basement has high ceilings and a dialed in-home recording studio or home gym. Step outside to a fully fenced backyard designed for play, gardening, entertaining, or relaxing. Ample off-street parking makes life a breeze for both you, your guests, or your tiny house. Newer systems offer peace of mind while CM2 zoning offers flexibility for a home business.

This home set up off of Alberta Street, and is within just a few blocks of freeway access for easy commuting. The entryway leads right into the formal living room, which is open to the dining room. Two bedrooms are on the left of the home separated...
by a full bath, and the eat in kitchen in back has been updated, and provides backyard access. The top floor of the home has been converted into something like a primary suite, with a full bath, common space or sitting room, and front facing bedroom.

CM2
Commercial/Mixed Use 2
The Commercial/Mixed Use 2 (CM2) zone is a medium scale zone intended for sites in a variety of centers, along corridors, and in other mixed use areas that have frequent transit service. The zone allows a wide range and mix of commercial and residential uses, as well as employment uses that have limited off-site impacts. Buildings in this zone will generally be up to four stories tall unless height and floor area bonuses are used, or plan district provisions specify other height limits. Development is intended to be pedestrian-oriented, provide a strong relationship between buildings and sidewalks, and complement the scale of surrounding residentially zoned areas.
