OPEN HOUSE SUNDAY 11/8 10AM-12PM!! Located in the desirable University Terrace area, this centrally located home offers a wonderful combination of character, thoughtful updates, and investment potential. Featuring 3 bedrooms on the main level, original oak hardwood floors, an updated kitchen and bathrooms, and vinyl double-pane windows, this property has plenty to offer. An additional 1,135 square feet of basement space features 2 rooms currently utilized as bedrooms, a full bathroom, a separate living room, laundry room, and abundant storage. The basement also offers a great game room and additional gathering space, making it an attractive setup for student rentals, graduate students, roommates, or multigenerational living. With two separate entrances, the flexible layout offers excellent potential for separate upstairs and downstairs living arrangements, further enhancing the property's investment appeal. The property has previously been used as a long-term rental and Airbnb, offering an opportunity for buyers interested in continuing its use as an income-producing property. The owner is also willing to sell the home furnished, creating the potential for a turnkey rental opportunity. The spacious, rock-landscaped backyard and low-maintenance, desert-inspired front yard provide renter-friendly outdoor spaces with minimal landscaping upkeep. The home is also conveniently located just three blocks from a grocery store, with easy access to UNR, shopping, dining, and downtown Reno. Property Disclosure: Please note that the home is listed as a 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom property on the assessor's records. The two basement rooms are currently utilized as bedrooms, and the basement also includes a full bathroom.
