New improved price! The Banana Slug Inn is a magical multi-unit property centrally located in the heart of Ben Lomond near restaurants, hiking and mountain bike trails, Highlands Park, grocery stores and much more! Serene forest setting with meandering creeks, bridge and a babbling fountain. Two charming homes with character from bygone eras and great separation for privacy. Cozy up in front of the living room fireplace of the front home while enjoying views of the redwoods or choose the back home with views of the creeks and garden areas. Back home has an additional, coverted living area as well as a common area laundry room. Potentially offset your mortgage with potential rental income or the perfect opportunity for an extended family. Plenty of parking with a circular driveway for easy ingress and egress to both entrances of the property. Bonus is the new roof!!! A true delight and a unique opportunity!
