Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

Built in 1913, this duplex retains Victorian-era character while undergoing substantial restoration. Structural, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC work has been roughed in and passed city inspection. The foundation has been repaired, framing includes full fire-blocking, and the original weighted windows have been restored. A newer roof, gutters, and downspouts are also in place.

The interior remains unfinished, with insulation and wall closure still required, while the exterior needs paint and additional restoration. Preserved materials include original doors, mantels, brick, and shutters. Front and rear balconies, a deep porch, and the potential for separate meters add to the existing configuration. Preliminary drawings are available. The property is located one block from the Canal Streetcar and near Venezia, Mandina’s, Angelo Brocato’s, and Café Minh.
