Homer Bench property with expansive views of Kachemak Bay. Includes a 3-bed, 1.5-bath main home (1,421 sqft) plus detached 2-bed, 1-bath unit (884 sqft) above a heated 2-car garage. Currently, two separate long-term rentals; tenants pay utilities = low operating costs. Instant cash flow + room for growth. Options abound including owner occupancy, multi-generational living, or investment. Perched on the Homer Bench with wide-open views of the Homer Spit, Kachemak Bay, and the surrounding mountains and glaciers, this property offers a rare mix of scenery and flexibility. The setup includes two separate living spaces: a 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath main home and an apartment over a large two-car garage. Both units have been rented long term, with tenants paying their own utilities, keeping operating c osts low. One unit will be available in the coming months, making this a strong option for an owner-occupant who wants help offsetting expenses, or for someone continuing it as a long-term rental property. The garage provides generous storage or parking, with additional on-site parking available. This is a location people actively look for paired with a property that offers real-world flexibility for how you live or invest in Homer.
