5 bed, 2 bath Single Family home, 2400 sq ft. This home was very unique in that it was perfectly set up for a house hack. We knew we were looking for a single family home in which we could convert into a non-conforming duplex. This was a perfect set up as it had a side entrance into a finished basement with 2 bedrooms, bathroom, and full kitchen. We were able to live in the top floor while we airbnb'ed the basement for a year.
