About This Home

As of September 2022

Looking for an owner-occupied property or a solid investment? If so, this well-maintained duplex is for you. Since the current owners purchased this 2-unit duplex in 2015, it has always been occupied as a rental with a solid return on investment. The lower unit has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom with a full basement and coin-operated washer and dryer. The upper unit has one bedroom and one bathroom, with a separate entrance. Several improvements have been completed to both units by the current owners, including separate furnaces; a new chimney; new flooring and paint in both units; and an updated bathroom and refrigerator in the lower unit. The new glass block vented windows in the basement allow more light in and create a brighter space. The backyard offers ample privacy with the new fence along the back and space to utilize. The large double shed can store and secure any additional items for the new owner or tenants. The property is City Rental Certified through February 28, 2025. To schedule a private showing, contact me today!
