Property details
About 118 Wolcott Ave
A RARE FIND ON EASTON'S POINT....A parcel of land large enough for a family compound! The solidly built, well-maintained ranch home is in move-in condition. The house features a living room, dining room, and 3 bedrooms with hardwood flooring; a kitchen with linoleum flooring; 2 full bathrooms with tile flooring; full dry basement; an efficient 95% AFUE direct vent gas boiler; architectural shingles; first floor and basement washer/dryer hookups; huge fenced-in back yard; knotty pine breezeway to attached 2-car garage; tool shed; brick patio and front walkway; basement cedar closet; and retractable awnings on the front windows. ATTENTION INVESTORS: The property consists of 2 lots and the existing house is grandfathered to allow short-term rentals without a special permit or owner residency on the property. As an added bonus, duplexes are allowed by special permit in this zoning district. Each lot is legally nonconforming with respect to frontage and lot width. An administrative subdivision is in the works to remove a minor encroachment of the house over the common lot line and to increase the area of one lot to 20,000 sf, which would allow an accessory dwelling unit by right if the proposed ordinance is adopted. The house and 2 lots are currently being offered as a package, but once the administrative subdivision is completed the owner will entertain selling the 2 parcels individually.
