Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This spacious two-unit duplex includes two separate living units, each with three bedrooms and one bathroom. The configuration provides independent entries for the occupants, and the home benefits from major updates completed in 2023, including a new EPDM roof and new flooring throughout both units. With abundant natural light noted throughout, the layout is well suited to either long-term rentals or one-unit occupancy while maintaining rental income potential from the other side.

The property is located in Cohoes, with convenience called out to shopping, restaurants, schools, and parks. Public remarks also note easy access to Albany, Troy, and the Capital Region, along with proximity to major highways.

For a buyer looking for a residential income property, this duplex offers a straightforward two-family setup with separate entrances and mirrored unit bedroom and bath counts. For an owner-occupant, the same layout supports living in one unit while renting the other, using the existing separation to maintain day-to-day independence between occupants. The 2023 improvements should also help reduce near-term maintenance concerns related to roofing and interior flooring.

Key Highlights

  • Two‑family duplex built in 1890 with brick construction
  • Each unit offers 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom with separate entrances
  • New EPDM flat roof and new flooring throughout both units, completed in 2023
