Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1974, this duplex is well-maintained and move-in ready with functional updates such as laminate flooring and central HVAC. While it is fully rented and shows regular upkeep, it retains its original 1970s character with non-functional fireplaces and dated architectural features, fitting the criteria for an aged property that has not undergone a comprehensive recent renovation.
The property is a fully occupied duplex, providing an investor with immediate cash flow and no initial vacancy period.
Each unit features a spacious layout exceeding 1,200 sq. ft., private two-car garages, central HVAC, and individual backyards, which are high-demand features for tenants.
Situated at the end of a cul-de-sac, the property offers enhanced privacy and significantly reduced through-traffic, increasing its long-term residential appeal.
The fireplaces in both units are currently not in use, which may indicate a need for specialized inspections or costly repairs to ensure safety and functionality.
Built in 1974, the property may require more frequent maintenance or capital improvements to its older systems to maintain its value and competitiveness.
