## Description

### Agent Description
Thoughtfully positioned on a spacious 0.41-acre corner lot, this Salem property offers exceptional flexibility and future potential. Whether you're looking to remodel the existing 4-bedroom, 1-bath home, develop the lot, or keep the home and pursue a potential lot split (buyer to perform due diligence), this property presents multiple opportunities. The home sits among beautiful mature trees, creating a peaceful and private setting while providing a solid foundation for your vision. The oversized detached garage makes an intriguing candidate for a potential ADU or additional living space (buyer to verify). The property is connected to city water and also includes a private well, offering added versatility. Favorable RS zoning opens the door to a variety of development possibilities, making this an attractive opportunity for homeowners, investors, and builders alike. Whether you choose to renovate, expand, explore development options, or simply enjoy the generous lot and established setting, this property offers the rare combination of land, location, and long-term potential.
