The property is situated on a rare through-lot with private entrances on separate streets, providing the privacy and curb appeal of two detached residences.
- Income Generation Potential
The back-to-back duplex configuration is ideal for house-hacking, allowing an owner to live in the spacious primary unit while offsetting the mortgage with rental income from the second unit.
- Spacious Primary Residence
The main unit on High St. offers a generous 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom layout with nearly 2,300 square feet of living space, including a large bonus room.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Inconsistent School Ratings
While the local elementary school is well-rated, the assigned middle and high schools currently hold lower performance ratings, which may impact appeal for some families.
- Limited Outdoor Space
With nearly 3,000 square feet of living space on a 4,680 square foot lot, the remaining yard space for gardening or recreation is relatively modest for a property of this size.
- Potential Main Unit Updates
While the second unit is fully remodeled, the 1961-built primary residence may require additional cosmetic or system updates to match the modern finish of the smaller unit.
