About This Home
As of December 2022Huge price reduction! Seller reduced price for updating needed. This is a great opportunity to make money at this price to live in one and fix up the other or to fix up and rent both in this high demand rental market. The first floor unit has a very large living room/dining room space with a half bath. There is a galley kitchen which leads to a private spacious bedroom with a full bath that was recently renovated for his elderly parents when they lived there. There is a small laundry area outside of the main bedroom leading to the courtyard. The second unit is a second and third floor unit. There is a large living room and full private bath at the top of the stairs. This unit has a full size kitchen and 3 bedrooms, 1 on the second level and the other two on the third level, one is a walk through. There is also a full bathroom on each level! There is another small room that could be an office/play room. Outside is a detached garage that is 19Wx 39L that could be rented out for additional storage use but could easily fit 2 cars but the alley is narrow so no truck would be able to make the turn into the garage. The back garage door does need repair/replacement.
The basement is entered through the Bilco door on the front sidewalk. The basement is dry, has tons of space for storage, has a brand new hot water heater, it has gas heat and 2 separate electric meters which are located in the front side. The basement runs the full length of the building and is dry. Rent projection is 750 for first floor and 1250 for 2nd floor and 300/350 for the oversized 2 + car garage.
