Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

Welcome to 262 Sterling Avenue, a move-in-ready 3/3 duplex featuring separate entrances for both units. The home includes a spacious front foyer with original woodwork, plus a brick-and-vinyl exterior with a front upper balcony and two rear decks. A two-car garage with attached storage space sits behind the property, and exterior updates include white vinyl fencing leading to a perennial garden area.

Both units have central A/C. The lower unit has been freshly painted with new carpeting, and the upper unit was tastefully renovated about three years ago. Additional space includes a full attic with many possibilities and a partially finished basement with two good-sized rooms.

This property is offered for sale with a tenant in the upper unit currently welcoming the opportunity to extend tenancy. The seller has indicated offers will be reviewed as received.

Key Highlights
