    Overview

    This well-maintained two-family residence offers a first-floor unit in excellent condition with high ceilings, natural light, hardwood floors, and stainless appliances. The first floor also benefits from the full basement for laundry and storage. A vacant second-floor unit is in great shape and ready to rent, featuring hardwood floors, a functional kitchen and bath, and access to a second-floor balcony for private outdoor space.

    The offering includes the main home plus an additional lot and a 3-car garage. The exterior is described as low maintenance, and the property provides ample parking. The units have separate utilities and the home is heated with natural gas.

    For buyers seeking a live-in-and-earn setup or a straightforward rental configuration, the current layout supports separate unit use with independent utilities. With a vacant second-floor unit, an operator can move toward new tenancy immediately while also considering the included garage and additional lot as assets for future expansion options that are contemplated in the listing remarks.
