A full basement provides laundry hookups, supporting in-unit convenience without altering the existing layouts. Exterior improvements include a newer driveway that adds off-street parking, along with private yard space for each residence. The current gross rental income totals $1,450 per month, and leases are already secured through July 2027. The property is offered for sale AS IS.
For investors or owners seeking occupied income at acquisition, this duplex is structured around two signed rentals and documented rent levels through the lease term. Its combination of hardwood floors, functional original character, and shared support amenities like basement laundry hookups may appeal to tenants looking for day-to-day usability while keeping the ownership profile relatively simple for a two-unit asset.
