This impressive 2-unit property has undergone major upgrades, including a brand-new tear-off roof, siding, furnaces, water heaters, and updated plumbing. Only cosmetic finishes and appliances remain-perfect for adding your personal touch and building instant equity. The main-level unit features 3 spacious bedrooms, a large living room, separate dining room, and generous kitchen. The upper unit offers 2 bedrooms, a large walk-in closet, and ample storage. The basement includes 2 additional bedrooms and a full bath-ideal for extended living or rental income. It's already wired for a 3rd unit, and while the plumbing was capped, lines can easily be extended to add a 3rd meter. Live in one unit and rent out the other to offset your mortgage! Owner-occupants may qualify for a $20K forgivable grant with just $1K down-and may stack additional grants through your preferred lender. FHA appraisal and inspection already completed and in system. Back on the market due to buyer financing. Property sold as-is; finishing work to be completed by buyer.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
