After i bought the place i turned a portion of the basement into a studio apartment to use as an Airbnb, i intentionally designed the space to be versatile, the area can be used as a stand alone apartment with its own entrance, parking, full kitchen, bathroom and laundry or you could open up door in the hallway to use the space as a large entertainment area. 

Floors, paint, kitchen, appliances, bathroom.

Basically everything is new; roof, siding, windows, electric, plumbing, HVAC, kitchens, bath, flooring etc.

Unfortunately there was a small kitchen fire in one of the units this week. 

A full kitchen, washer/dryer and a place to S.S.

Also, completely rehabbed the kitchen which included granite countertops and also completely rehabbed the bathrooms.

I updated bathrooms and kitchens and painted throughout.
