About This Home

Excellent North Austin income-producing investment opportunity with strong cash flow and long-term appreciation potential. Owned by the same owner for more than 20 years and professionally maintained throughout that time, this beautifully renovated duplex sits on an oversized approximately 0.34-acre corner lot in a predominantly single-family neighborhood. The property features two spacious 2-bedroom, 1-bath units with modern updates and consistent rental demand.
Each unit features durable, tenant-friendly finishes including wood-plank porcelain tile flooring throughout (no carpet), granite countertops, modern lighting, and upgraded Samsung stainless-steel appliances. Large living areas with floor-to-ceiling brick fireplaces add character, while converted garage spaces provide additional functional square footage ideal for a home office, game room, studio, or secondary living area.
Both units include private fenced backyards with patio space, mature oak trees, and ample shade. A new cedar fence installed in 2025 enhances privacy and outdoor appeal. The oversized corner lot is a rare feature for a duplex and adds significant long-term land value.
Major capital improvements include a full roof replacement in 2024. The property currently generates approximately $42,600 in annual gross rental income, providing immediate cash flow with future rent-growth potential.
Conveniently located near major roadways, employment centers, shopping, and dining, this turnkey duplex offers investors a compelling combination of established ownership, professional maintenance, current income, recent improvements, and long-term appreciation potential.
