Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This updated two-unit duplex features two separate residences, each offering three bedrooms and one bathroom. Both units include large rooms and closet space designed for practical everyday living. Additional flexible space is provided by a finished attic that can serve as an extra bedroom or storage, depending on the needs of the occupant.
The property sits on a 0.14-acre lot and includes a large yard with off-street parking. The listing describes convenient access to parks, restaurants, shopping, and highways, with the property minutes from Downtown Scranton.
From a tenant or owner-occupant standpoint, the duplex layout supports multiple living arrangements within one building, with each unit configured similarly for consistency and manageability. The finished attic adds usable area beyond the primary bedroom and bathroom footprint, which can be valuable for larger households or for occupants who need additional storage. The combination of remodeled interiors, two units, and off-street parking can fit buyers looking for residential income or a first-time purchase that combines owner-occupancy with rental utility. All information is approximate and not warranted or guaranteed.
