About this home

Investor and owner-occupant opportunity in a designated Portsmouth Opportunity Zone. This 2-story duplex unlocks flexible income potential: run it as a traditional two-unit rental, or convert to the co-living model it was originally designed for, with up to 3 rentable rooms (2 up + 1 down). At approximately $800 per room market rent, the by-the-room scenario projects roughly $2,400 per month in gross potential income, giving an investor two paths to a strong cash-on-cash return. Three bedrooms and 2.5 baths across two stacked units. 2025 upgrades include luxury vinyl plank flooring and ductless mini-split systems, plus forced-air heat and central air. Eat-in kitchen, fireplace, covered patio, wood deck, fenced backyard, and a detached storage outbuilding. Low-maintenance vinyl and brick exterior. Public transportation is on the corner; the surrounding area is improving. All appliances convey.
