BACK ON MARKET - no fault of seller or property. Most properties with three units feel like three units. This one feels like a house. A University Heights Craftsman, fully renovated, permitted, and separately metered, set up as a 2 bed, 2 bath main residence, a studio with a full kitchen, and a detached 1 bed, 1 bath ADU. Approximately 2,020 square feet total, each with a private entrance and private outdoor space. 1920s bookshelves, floors, and windows were restored by hand rather than swapped out for cheaper alternatives, and modern additions sit alongside that character, not over it. The main residence kitchen is the showpiece: French at heart, with brass hardware, sculptural lighting, serious storage, and a window onto the garden. An en suite bath was built to resemble a spa retreat, the kind you don't rush. A bright sunroom and sitting room face a tropical front yard, perfect for morning coffee. Out back, a space big enough to host a sunset event: an elevated deck, a fire pit, mature fruit trees, and enough greenery to forget how close you are to everything. Three parking spaces, an EV charger, and owned solar. If you prefer going out, local favorites like Soichi, The Friendly, Little While, Polite Provisions, and Ann's Dry Cleaning are a block or two away, covering all the bases. The studio and ADU are vacant and can be rented immediately. Live in one and rent two. Move a parent into the ADU. Keep the studio for guests. The configuration is yours. What's already settled is the part you can't fake: it feels like a home, not a portfolio.
