Now priced at $495,000 — don’t miss this incredible opportunity just steps from JMU’s main gate, Newman Lake, the top-ranked College of Business, and Bridgeforth Stadium! This extensively updated brick ranch offers spaciousness, style, and modern comfort, plus a fully renovated income-producing apartment on the lower level. The main floor features hardwood floors, two fireplaces, both a living room and a family room, a designated laundry room, and a bright sunroom overlooking the flat, fully fenced backyard with a deck and koi pond. The kitchen has been completely redone with Bianco Calacatta quartz countertops, a herringbone backsplash, new cabinetry, and mostly new appliances. You’ll also find a primary suite, two additional bedrooms, and an updated guest bath. The lower-level apartment includes its own kitchen, laundry, large rec room, and private entry — currently leased for $1,350/month. Situated in one of Harrisonburg’s most convenient pockets, the home is walkable to JMU, Purcell Park, the Bluestone Trail, Starbucks, and local cafes, and just half a mile from I-81. A new roof and HVAC system were installed in 2018. Opportunities this close to campus with this much flexibility don’t come along often!
