About this single-family home

INVESTORS, INVESTORS — and buyers seeking multi-generational living. Rare 1.04-acre property in the heart of Normal Heights, just minutes from Kensington, offering exceptional build and redevelopment potential. A long private driveway leads to the main residence set back on the property, capturing stunning views, abundant natural light, and strong indoor-outdoor potential. The existing home is approximately 1,380 sq ft with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a 2-car garage, built in 1954. An ADU above the garage is not reflected in the main square footage, adding additional future upside. This is a true rebuild and value-add opportunity. The property is ready to be reimagined to unlock significant value — ideal for income potential, multigenerational living, or two families on one property with privacy. Opportunities like this are extremely rare in this location. Must be seen to fully appreciate the potential. Buyer to verify all information.
