About This Home

As of August 2021

Here's your chance -- the much sought after side by side duplex is available. Owners' side (998) is refreshed - completely painted, new fixtures, new carpet and much more. While there is new carpet on the owners' side with a nice tile foyer entry way -- if you prefer hardwoods you will find them under the carpet. Owners' side has an enclosed screened in porch with gas grill - no bugs to content with in the room the contractors referred to as the cigar room. All mechanicals are in working order. Rented side has long term and low maintenance tenant that would like to stay although the rent could be higher. Both sides have laundry facilities and gas fireplaces that are the focal point of the over-sized living rooms. Tons of newer upgrades. If you chose not to move into unit that has been updated for a future owner the potential rent is $1,200+. This is a no-brainer.
