    This two-story duplex offers flexible living and income potential with a configuration that can be maintained as an up-and-down duplex or used as a single-family home. The property includes four bedrooms total, with the upper unit fully remodeled and finished with modern updates, new black appliances, and vinyl plank flooring throughout. The main level has its own kitchen, newer Lennox furnace, and laundry hookups on both floors. Separate gas and water meters support independent utility tracking, and the layout includes separate private entrances for each level. Recent exterior work includes a new roof installed in 2023 and new siding completed in 2024.

    The property is located at 412 S 2nd Avenue E in Newton, Iowa. Access is supported by rear alley access, and the home is positioned for convenience near downtown.
