21 East 5th St, Clifton City, NJ 07011
What's special
Turnkey 2-family investment property in Clifton's sought-after Lakeview neighborhood, offering strong income potential with built-in upside for investors. Both units feature 3 bedrooms, 1 full bath, updated kitchens with refrigerator, stove, and microwave, and in-unit laundry a major tenant draw that supports premium rents and lower vacancy. The walkout basement adds valuable additional living space to the 1st floor unit, while the finished attic includes a permit-approved full bathroom that extends living space for the 2nd floor unit, bringing the total to 3 full baths and creating real upside for higher rental income. Additional highlights include radiator steam heat, ceiling fans, and a 4-car driveway on a quiet street a rare and valuable amenity in this submarket.Situated just off Lakeview Ave with easy access to Garden State Parkway, Route 46, and I-80, this property offers strong commuter appeal to tenants. With tenants responsible for gas and electric and the landlord covering only water, owner-side utility exposure is minimal. At approximately 3,100 total square feet across 6 bedrooms and 3 full baths, both units recently updated and move-in ready, this is a compelling, low-capex addition to any income portfolio.
