SFH Conversion to 2 Rentals - Colorado (Aurora)

Hi All,

I have a single family listing that's struggling to sell because a previous owner converted the garage into living space. Buyers in this area would much prefer a garage over the extra 400 finished sq ft.

With how it's laid out, I think it would be pretty easy to block off the lower floor and upper floors to create two separate spaces for lease (looks relatively simple to add a kitchen to the lower space). Before I add this as a marketing angle to the listing, I'm curious if anyone knows if this would be legal? Aurora allows up to 4 unrelated people in a home, but as "a single housekeeping unit". I'm curious if separating the two spaces would violate zoning law.

For reference, here is the home:http://www.12273ebatescir.com/

Cheers,
Michael Surges, REALTOR
