    What's special

    Wood-burning fireplaceBrick two-unit income propertyCovered breezewayHardwood floors throughout
    Situated on a RARE nearly 1/2 acre lot, this brick two-unit income property on the Fontaine Avenue corridor has been consistently rented for just over 20 years. Within walking and biking distance of UVA Grounds, Scott Stadium, the UVA Medical Center, and Fontaine Research Park. The property is comprised of a 2,400 sqft 4 BR/2.5 BA main home with hardwood floors throughout and a wood-burning fireplace, as well as a self-contained 2BR/1BA apartment with its own living room and kitchen — each unit separately metered. Units share laundry and can be combined into a single-family residence if preferred. Connected by a covered breezeway is the one-car garage with a bonus room and full bath above. Offstreet parking for 6+ vehicles. The property carries CX-5 (Corridor Mixed Use 5) zoning, designed to encourage higher-intensity, pedestrian-friendly development along key urban corridors. CX-5 permits unlimited residential density, mixed residential and commercial uses, and building heights up to five stories by right — with no minimum lot size and no off-street parking requirements. Turnkey rental now and a fantastic opportunity for an investor with a longer horizon as the lot size and zoning create meaningful options.
