Smallest home in the best part of town. My business partners and I purchased this to improve in the next year or two - plan to add +/- 1,500 SF when the construction market cools a little and material costs come down :). In the interim, we did a small energy upgrade, including increasing attic insulation by 4x, insulating water heater and pipes, caulking and gap sealing, added LED lighting and 220 V power to the garage for EV charging. We also added some interior work, such as a new install of a recycled door and hardware. Doing our part to lessen the impact that our homes have on the planet!
