658 S Franklin Street

Tucked quietly away behind South Franklin St., this unexpected property offers charm, flexibility and future potential. Hidden behind the street frontage buildings, the setting feels surprisingly privateyet it's moments from shopping, the hospital, and the Coastal Trail. At its heart are two charming one-bedroom, one-bath cottages built in 1944 and 1966 respectively. Each home is warmed by efficient propane Rinnai heaters, creating comfortable, cozy living spaces. Between the cottages, a fenced yard offers a shared outdoor spaceperfect for a quiet morning coffee, a small garden, or simply enjoying the fresh coastal air. A separate freestanding storage building provides two 5'x12' units, adding value for tenants, owners, or business use. With CG'' zoning, there is the potential to add up to two additional units without parking or capacity fees, making this an intriguing opportunity for expansion or income growth. The zoning also allows for a wide range of commercial uses, offering flexibility for those with a vision beyond residential housing. (Buyers should verify possibilities with the City of Fort Bragg). This is a property with character, convenience, and uncommon potential waiting for a new owner with vision to take it into the future.
