Interior updates since 2015 include new window treatments, custom built-ins, updated lighting fixtures, and a 2023 repaint covering the majority of the home. Architectural plans by Kim Grant were commissioned for a future 2-unit ADU above and attached to the garage, along with an expanded front entry porch, offering exceptional potential for additional living space or income opportunities.
