Property details

About 608 E 5th St

This versatile 2,153 sq. ft. home is full of character and potential, offering 2 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, and endless possibilities for residential or mixed-use living. Situated on a generous double lot, the property includes multiple outbuildings and thoughtful improvements by its architect-owner since 2018. Highlights include: Two new HVAC units Site grading and French drain for a dry crawl space New metal roof with gutters, leaf guards, and solar panels Rebuilt front porch and secondary entry steps Five high-performance windows installed Raised vegetable garden and refreshed landscaping The original 432 sq. ft. garage has been reinforced and can function as a garage or workshop. An additional 232 sq. ft. structure—with a new roof—is ready for use as storage or renovation into a guest suite. A carport adds further convenience. Originally a home and beauty salon since the 1960s, the property has also served as an architectural office. The layout is ideal for a live/work lifestyle, and with some reconfiguration, it could easily become a 3-bedroom, 2-bath home without adding square footage. With its spacious yard, privacy, and flexible spaces, this property is a rare opportunity.
