Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This fully detached brick two-family home at 32-54 81st Street offers a flexible duplex-style layout across two connected levels with an interior staircase between floors. The top floor includes a front-facing king-size bedroom, two additional bedrooms, a full windowed bathroom, and a spacious eat-in kitchen with a walk-in pantry, along with an open living and dining area featuring an electric fireplace. The first floor mirrors the general arrangement and is currently occupied by a long-term tenant since 2019 on a month-to-month basis. That level includes a front-facing bedroom with a private front entry and the rest of the apartment configured as a 3-bedroom layout, with an outside separate entrance (OSE) that also connects to the interior staircase.
The expansive lower level is also accessible via an outside separate entrance (OSE) and includes distinct front and rear recreational zones. The front area is fully open for flexible use, while the rear section offers a recreation area with a full bath and wet bar. The property sits on a 31.5 x 100 lot (including an adjacent lot) and includes a utility shed and a shared driveway that provides accessible private parking spaces in the backyard. The property is located in R4 zoning with a commercial overlay and is less than 1 block from Northern Boulevard.
The combination of two-family living, multiple outside separate entrances, and on-site private parking supports a range of owner and tenant scenarios, including live-and-rent or multi-unit occupancy. With one unit currently leased on a month-to-month basis, the property also provides the option for immediate revenue while retaining future flexibility for the remaining spaces.
