Both units offer 2 beds and 1 bath, high ceilings, and spacious layouts. Recent updates include a newer roof and newer porches outside each unit, adding value and peace of mind. A large detached garage offers ample storage or workspace. Village Residential (VR) zoning allows for some business uses (buyer to verify). Conveniently located on the bus route with easy commuter access, this property is close to town amenities, shopping, and dining. With public water & sewer, gas heat, and strong rental potential, this home is a fantastic opportunity to build equity or expand your portfolio!
