About this home

Turnkey duplex offering immediate rental income and flexibility for both investors and owner-occupants! The downstairs unit is currently rented for $1,600/month to a tenant who would like to remain, while the upstairs unit is being left vacant to give the next owner the option to move in or place their own tenant. Previously fully rented, the vacant unit offers strong rental potential for an investor looking to maximize income. Offering a total of 6 bedrooms and 3 full baths, the first-floor unit features 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, while the second-floor unit includes 2 bedrooms, a bonus room, and 1 full bath. Updates completed between 2023–2025 include newer flooring, carpet, paint, kitchens, baths, lighting, ductwork, crawlspace barrier, and plumbing drain lines. Additional features include separate water, gas, and electric meters, spacious porches, a 4-car driveway, and additional street parking. Live in one unit while collecting $1,600/month in rental income from the other, or lease both units and add an income-producing property to your investment portfolio. The vacant upstairs unit is easy to show and available for tours anytime. The occupied downstairs unit requires 48-hour notice.
