The two bedroom, one bath ADU features a full kitchen and private entrance with updated flooring making it ideal for rental income, guests, or independent living. Mature fruit trees, including guava, lemon and apple, add charm and character to the outdoor space.Conveniently located near major transportation, this rare and versatile property delivers space, smart upgrades, and long-term value all in one.
