Set on 1.5 private acres in Auburn yet less than 10 minutes from downtown, this one-of-a-kind property has a rare blend of seclusion and convenience with a truly unique layout! The 3-bedroom, 2-bath home features a flexible design with one bedroom and bathroom offering its own separate entrance, private living room, and mini kitchenette, ideal for in-law quarters, multi-generational living, or potential rental income. Multiple skylights fill the home with abundant natural light, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout. Rich in original character, the home showcases built-in cedar shelving and a cozy wood-burning fireplace that anchors the living space. Just across the driveway, a heated shop with a loft and full bathroom provides endless possibilities as an office, studio, gym, or creative retreat. The grounds are equally inviting with a chicken coop, mature fruit trees including cherry plum, pear, and persimmon, and a lower-level shed for added storage. Freshly installed grass creates a usable, flat area perfect for kids or pets, while the surrounding trees offer privacy, shade, and a peaceful setting filled with local wildlife!
