Overview

Description

A rare find in Heritage Hill: a two unit with a carriage house and nearly four decades of care behind it. This well maintained home offers 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom in each unit, giving you flexibility to live in one and rent the other, or convert back to a spacious single family home. Above the 2 stall garage sits a carriage house with unfinished bonus space, ready for your vision. Studio, home office, creative retreat, the possibilities are wide open. Owned and cared for by the same family since 1988, this home has been a labor of love for decades. The garden was even featured in the 2026 Heritage Hill Garden Tour, a backyard space that adds charm and character that you don't often see in multi-unit properties. Located between Wealthy and Cherry, you're close to restaurants, coffee, and everyday conveniences, with quick access to downtown. Whether you're looking for an income producing property, a multigenerational setup, or a SFH with room to grow, this gem checks all the boxes.
