Rental Goldmine or Dream Home? Why Not Both. Once upon a time—just a few flip-flop steps from Colorado Mesa University—there stood a house that couldn’t decide if it wanted to be a killer rental or a forever home. Spoiler: it’s amazing at being both. Let’s get the basics out of the way: 1. Four true-blue bedrooms (no sketchy garage conversions here) 2. Two full bathrooms (your mornings just got 80% less chaotic) 3. A 2-car garage plus 5—yes, five—extra parking spots. So go ahead, host Friendsgiving and invite the neighbors. Now for the fun stuff. The kitchen? It’s massive. Big enough for real cooking, late-night snacking, and the occasional dance party while waiting for the oven to preheat. Open, bright, and ready for everything from Saturday pancakes to that one sourdough phase you keep meaning to start. The primary suite is straight-up luxurious. A fireplace to keep things cozy, and a private bathroom where you can finally escape the “someone’s in here!” chorus of shared living. This place practically whispers to investors (hello, built-in rental income near CMU), but it sings to anyone dreaming of home ownership. Whether you want to live in it, rent it out, or do a little of both—it’s flexible, functional, and full of personality. And let’s not forget location: You’re so close to Colorado Mesa University you could wake up late and still beat the bell. Perfect for student renters, faculty, or even a growing family who just loves being in the heart of the action. So whether you're a savvy investor looking for strong returns or a future homeowner looking to put down roots (with room for friends, pets, and that sourdough starter), this place is ready to be your next big thing. Call now before someone else scoops up this rare mix of rental potential and real-home magic!
