Perched above the street for added privacy, this legal duplex features two carports and exceptional versatility. Each unit is accessed by its own private stairway and offers a bright, comfortable layout with two bedrooms and one bathroom, filled with natural light. The property also includes a coin-operated washer and dryer for tenant convenience and an additional income opportunity for the owner. It provides quick access to public transit for easy commutes to downtown or the Eastside. Conveniently located near schools, parks, I-5, and I-90, this property presents a unique opportunity to live in one unit and rent the other, rent both as a strong investment property, or explore future development potential. Current rents total $3,300 per month. Both units have maintained a 100% occupancy rate for years, making it a solid cash-generating property. A street appraisal of the exterior is acceptable; however, please do not disturb the occupants.
