Built in 1909, this property is significantly aged. While it features recent copper plumbing upgrades and separate meters, the interior is dated; the kitchen shows older painted cabinetry, laminate countertops, and a cramped layout likely renovated over 20 years ago. The exterior shows some staining and wear, and while functional as an income property, it requires cosmetic modernization and minor repairs.
The duplex configuration featuring a 2-bedroom and a 1-bedroom unit provides excellent flexibility for investors or owner-occupants looking to generate immediate rental income.
The inclusion of brand-new copper plumbing throughout the property adds significant value and offers long-term peace of mind regarding essential maintenance.
Separate electric and gas meters for each unit simplify property management and ensure that utility costs are easily delegated to tenants.
With only 900 total square feet divided between two units, the living areas are exceptionally small, which may limit the appeal for families or long-term tenants.
The 2,076 square foot lot is quite modest for a multi-family property, potentially restricting off-street parking options and outdoor recreational space.
