This two-family home includes two separate apartment layouts and a basement with two additional rooms. Apartment 1 offers a living room, dining room, two bedrooms, two baths, and a balcony. Apartment 2 features a living room, dining room, two bedrooms with balconies, a bonus room that could serve as a third bedroom, and 2.5 baths, along with a large terrace for entertaining.
