The detached 2-car garage has been converted into a successful Airbnb suite with a full bath, bedroom, mini split, and new roof, generating $18,000–$25,000 annually. Outside, the home is surrounded by lovely landscaping, lush gardens, and a variety of fruit trees, creating a peaceful outdoor oasis.
