With a comfortable layout spanning approximately 600 square feet, this second-floor guesthouse, perched above a garage, is nestled in the charming Allandale neighborhood, near the intersection of 2222 and Burnet Rd. It comprises one bedroom with an additional sleeper sofa in the living room, along with a full bathroom featuring a shower. The kitchen is equipped with a refrigerator, cooktop, microwave, and toaster oven, while a washer and dryer are available in the garage for your convenience.
