Buyer may be able to run a Bed and Breakfast or just do long term rentals on all five areas that could be made separate from each other. My favorite aspect of this property is that even though it's historic, there is no deferred maintenance. The heating and air conditioning systems have been replaced.. In fact it had the Airport Authority sound proofing a few years ago. The roof is only 7 years old. The entire house was completely painted recently and the driveway, where you can park 6 cars tandem, was redone as well.
