About This Home

As of May 2026

Turnkey Duplex Investment Opportunity! Well-maintained duplex offering strong rental potential with numerous recent updates and major system improvements already completed. Unit 1314 has been extensively updated with a fully renovated bathroom, along with a brand-new furnace and air conditioning system installed in 2024. Unit 1312 features a new water heater installed in April 2024. A major upgrade to the property includes all-new plumbing from each unit’s bathroom through the building and out to the exterior main line, including replacement of the main plumbing under the basement slab—a significant improvement that provides long-term reliability. Both units also have bathroom plumbing roughed in within the basement, currently capped beneath the concrete, offering future potential for additional bathroom space. Additional updates include:
• New storm door installed at 1312
• New storm door for 1314 (included and ready for installation) This property is ideal for investors looking for a solid duplex with major mechanical and infrastructure improvements already completed, while still offering future value-add potential in the basement spaces.
