Description
Welcome to a home with history, character, and endless possibilities, situated on Alta Vista, one of the most coveted streets in the highly desirable Travis Heights neighborhood! This unique property has evolved over time, starting as a single-family home and transforming into a duplex with an artist’s studio, then a triplex, while still retaining the charm and potential for a creative reimagining. The home has many possibilities, as a 5 bedroom with a studio plus office. The rentals have been financially rewarding. You'll enjoy easy access to freeways and the vibrant energy of a walkable neighborhood. Stroll to South Congress for its eclectic dining, shopping, live music and entertainment. Enjoy Little Stacy Park and Big Stacy Pool, just blocks from your doorstep. Living here means being surrounded by an active, creative community.
