About This Home

As of July 2025

Spacious, Income-Generating Duplex with Outstanding Potential!

This brick duplex offers a fantastic investment opportunity in Altoona. The property has a current rent certificate with the city. The property features two distinct units:

Unit 1: A project-ready space with renovation potential to meet your vision. Originally a 5-bedroom, 1-bath home with solid structure, this side has ''good bones'' and partial gutting already initiated. Ideal for creating two separate units, unlocking further income potential.

Unit 2: A large, well-maintained home featuring 4 bedrooms with generous proportions, 1 bath, and ample living areas including a dining room, living room, and substantial basement. Recent updates include a brand-new roof, newly installed blacktop, fresh carpet (not shown in photos), and a completely updated kitchen with new tile flooring.
With no yard to maintain, upkeep is a breeze, and the property is primed for income generation. Zoned with potential to convert into four units, this duplex provides an unmatched opportunity for savvy investors or owner-occupants looking to add value.
