Welcome to 1303 Calkins Road, a unique opportunity offering comfortable living with built-in income potential. This 4-bedroom, 2.5 bath raised ranch sits on almost an acre corner lot with excellent visibility on Route 20 and is zoned for highway business use. The open floor plan features a spacious kitchen with island, open to the large living room and dining space. The bright sunroom off the primary bedroom is perfect for a home office, sitting room, or hobby space. Enjoy a private backyard and one-car garage along with ample parking. The finished lower level (approx. 594 sq. ft.) is currently leased to a long-term business tenant generating $900 per month to help offset your mortgage. Looking ahead, the business space offers excellent potential for your own home-based business. While the home could benefit from cosmetic updates, the flexible layout, rental income, and future possibilities make this a truly rare opportunity.
