Description
Situated in the heart of the city, this fully renovated duplex offers modern finishes, reliable systems, and true turn‑key convenience. Both units have been thoughtfully upgraded with contemporary kitchens featuring new cabinets, countertops, stainless steel sinks, and a full suite of newer stainless steel appliances. Throughout the home, luxury vinyl plank flooring, new interior doors, and updated lighting and receptacles create a fresh, cohesive look.
Recent improvements include new baseboard heaters, a new flat roof installed in April 2022, new water heaters with expansion tanks, and extensive basement waterproofing with a vapor barrier and reinforced concrete floor. Additional upgrades include new plumbing in both bathrooms, two new windows in the lower unit, a new electric meter box and post, new locks, and a new 6‑ft privacy fence.he backyard features a new concrete patio, and a new front entry door is on the way.
The home is wonderfully redone, and ready to start producing cash for its investors or even house hackers! First time buyers could own this duplex for as little as zero down, live in one unit and rent out the other to keep their cost of living minimal! The home qualifies for many grants through various banks.
