Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This well-maintained two-family duplex features two separate units: a spacious 2-bedroom unit and a comfortable 1-bedroom unit. The property is set up with separate gas and electric utilities and individual forced-air furnaces, helping keep service arrangements straightforward. Off-street parking is available, along with a two-car garage, which supports convenient tenant access and everyday usability. Current rents are listed at $1,100 for one unit and $850 for the other.
Located in Rochester’s 19th Ward, the property is described as being minutes from the University of Rochester, Strong Memorial Hospital, downtown Rochester, and major expressways, supporting accessibility for both renters and owner-occupants. The listing also notes delayed negotiations until July 17, 2026 at 2:00 PM.
The duplex format can suit an investor seeking rental income with two distinct unit types, or an owner-occupant looking to live in one unit while renting the other. With separate utilities and individual heating systems already in place, the building offers a practical operating setup for managing tenant services across both residences. The included garage and additional off-street parking further support tenant comfort and day-to-day convenience.
