Special. Serene. Splendid. Fairmount Park bungalow with a permitted DADU features modern design appeal & wonderful flexibility. Set on a tranquil & private lot w/lush landscaping & oversized decks, the 3 bed / 2 bath main house was thoughtfully renovated in 2017 with a studs-out remodel featuring new electrical, plumbing, windows, insulation & mini-split AC, along with custom built-ins, new kitchen & baths + much more. As a bonus, the 580 sf DADU is equally impressive w/open-concept kitchen & living spaces, a large bedroom w/ensuite, tankless water heater & separate fenced yard, providing great income potential or extras space for guests, work & hobbies. Parking for 3 cars + storage shed. Fantastic location near Alaska & Morgan Junctions!
