About This Home
First time on the market in over 50 years! Mid-century cottage overlooking a large .67 of an acre lot above the University in beautiful Ashland, Oregon. Main house is approx. 1424 SF w/ two bedrooms and one bath, built in 1947. Great views looking out into the trees and the mountains afar. There is also a detached garage with a cozy ADU attached to it (separate electric meter and address). Sellers have divided the lot into two separate tax lots, .47 of an acre has the house and ADU and there is a .25 of acre lot that also could be developed or just left as one big lot! So much potential with this opportunity, be it a multi-generational setup or future site of your dream home! Property has T.I.D. irrigation rights and is close to hiking trails.
