Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This rehabilitated corner duplex delivers a ground-up rebuild with new framing, structural beams, and a fortified metal roof, along with all-new plumbing and electrical. The property is designed for ADA accessibility and includes full fire safety compliance. The upper residence features an open floorplan with a sophisticated kitchen, vaulted nickel gap ceilings, and heart pine flooring throughout, plus a deep balcony for outdoor space. The home is configured as a 3-bedroom, 3-bath plan.
Offered for sale as a complete rehabilitation, the building’s origins date back to the 1830s, with historical ties to the former Fabacher Brewing Company stable. The duplex presents as a residence above income-producing first-floor space, with both units currently occupied.
For buyers seeking a fully modernized, mixed residential-and-income configuration, this turnkey property provides a comprehensively rebuilt interior and exterior with contemporary life-safety and accessibility features already incorporated. With occupancy in place, it may suit owner-users or investors looking for a maintained two-unit setup requiring less near-term capital work. Please allow ample notice for showing requests, as both units are occupied.
