The main level features generous living spaces with large windows, tall ceilings, a full bathroom, and a versatile room that could serve as a first-floor primary, dining, study/office, etc. The mud room has potential to become a first floor laundry with a little engineering. The second floor bedrooms are bright and inviting. The full basement has a ton of storage space, and current laundry hookups. Outside, the fenced backyard provides space for entertaining, gardening, or quiet relaxation. The quiet bonus to this property is the detached building with electric in place providing possibilities for a workshop, studio, hobby space, storage, home business, or potential ADU conversion (buyer to verify zoning, permits, and utility requirements.) Conveniently located near Dayton Children's Hospital, downtown Dayton, Miami Valley Hospital, VA Hospital, WPAFB, the Oregon District, Riverscape MetroPark, and major routes, this property places shopping, dining, healthcare, entertainment, and employment within easy reach.
