This "tiny house" adjacent to the beautiful grounds of Reno's Elm Estate was absolutely perfect for two extra bedrooms for out-of-town guests for a big family celebration in Reno. Second Street is one of Reno's hidden treasures, centrally located to downtown, midtown, and easy access to the freeway to be anywhere else in Reno/Sparks in minutes. The cottage was immaculate.
