Property Description
CHARMING BUNGALOW IN HILLCREST HEIGHTS! This delightful property offers a 2 BD/ 1½ BA, mid-century home with a detached 1 BD/1 BA cottage. Situated on a large corner lot in the quaint town of Babson Park — just minutes from Webber International University. The property is an ideal investment as a residence for the owner while utilizing the detached cottage as living quarters for extended family, generating a monthly income as a rental or using the space as a home business, office, salon, crafting, etc. The living room within the main house features knotty pine paneling and ceiling that create a rustic, warm, character-filled atmosphere surrounding a cozy fireplace. The organic look that evokes nostalgia carries through to the dining room and kitchen, which is outfitted with contrasting light stone countertops and stainless steel appliances. In the family room, the affection of the fireplace is repeated with the display of its painted brick chimney. The main bathroom has a single sink vanity and the tub/shower has tile wrapped walls. The two bedrooms are comfortable in size, offering plenty of closet space; and a half-bath gives the owners' bedroom convenience along with dual closets and a linen closet. A nice big screened lanai is the perfect spot to entertain or spend relaxing times in the morning or evening. The detached building houses the 1 BD/1 BA apartment and also provides storage and covered parking, the driveway to the carports faces Catherine Ave. Residents of Hillcrest Heights have a private community beach with dock/pier on Crooked Lake! Call quickly, this great property will sell quickly!
