Situated on a corner lot just moments from downtown Stockton, this property offers a large yard, a 2-stall garage, an additional storage shed, and a charming 3-season porch. On the main floor you'll find a large living/dining room, 2 bedrooms, full bath, office and kitchen. The main floor laundry also features additional hookups upstairs for added convenience. On the second floor you'll find a private entrance master bedroom with an additional room off of it. There are 2 additional bedrooms and a large full bathroom. Recent updates include a weather-resistant metal roof, a new boiler, and a water heater installed in 2023. The exterior of the home has been repainted within the last 5 years. There are also other upgrades such as some flooring, painting, new refrigerator and dryer. Its prime location, just a short walk from downtown and a few blocks from the park and school, makes it ideal for anyone. Whether you're looking for the perfect starter home or a promising investment property (currently a single-family residence but easily converted back to a duplex), this property offers a rich history and endless possibilities!
