Overview

Description

A truly rare opportunity in Rochester—this legally licensed single-family home with an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) offers exceptional flexibility for owner-occupants, house hackers, multigenerational living, or those seeking supplemental rental income. Situated on a spacious 0.25-acre fully fenced lot, this unique property features two beautifully designed residences connected by a breezeway, creating the perfect blend of privacy, function, and lifestyle. The front house / ADU is a fully remodeled, lofted studio space thoughtfully designed with character and efficiency in mind. Featuring two sleeping lofts, a dedicated office space, kitchen, living and dining area, full bath, unfinished basement with laundry, and generous storage, it makes an ideal guest house, rental unit, home office retreat, or primary residence for a buyer looking to offset their mortgage. The main back house, built in 2017, is a stunning modern residence with 3 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, and a lofted office overlooking the main living space. Beautifully finished with wide-plank white oak floors, custom cabinetry, and a showstopping 10-foot quartz waterfall island, the home was designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The expansive dining area comfortably seats large gatherings, while the private deck and oversized fenced yard create an exceptional indoor-outdoor living experience. One of the only properties of its kind in Rochester, this is an outstanding opportunity to live in one home and rent the other, accommodate extended family, or enjoy a truly unique architectural property in a central location. Schedule your showing today! *Home is pre-inspected and one of the owners is a licensed real estate agent in Minnesota.*
