    Overview

    Fontaine Avenue Income Property

    This brick two-unit income property is situated on a nearly 1/2 acre lot on the Fontaine Avenue corridor. The property has been consistently rented for just over 20 years and is within walking and biking distance of UVA Grounds, Scott Stadium, the UVA Medical Center, and Fontaine Research Park. The property includes a 2,400 sqft 4-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom main home with hardwood floors and a wood-burning fireplace, as well as a self-contained 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom apartment with its own living room and kitchen. Each unit is separately metered and shares laundry facilities. The units can be combined into a single-family residence. A covered breezeway connects the units to a one-car garage with a bonus room and full bath above. Off-street parking is available for 6+ vehicles. The property carries CX-5 (Corridor Mixed Use 5) zoning, designed to encourage higher-intensity, pedestrian-friendly development along key urban corridors. CX-5 permits unlimited residential density, mixed residential and commercial uses, and building heights up to five stories by right, with no minimum lot size and no off-street parking requirements. The property presents a turnkey rental opportunity and potential for an investor with a longer horizon due to the lot size and zoning.
