Welcome to the heart of Elmwood Village!
This beautifully maintained two-family duplex offers the perfect blend of charm, space, and investment opportunity. Each apartment features three generously sized bedrooms and its own private porch, providing comfort and privacy for both units.
The lower unit is vacant and move-in ready, while the upper unit is occupied by reliable tenants paying market rent—offering immediate income. The second-floor apartment also includes a finished attic, adding valuable living space and enhancing the overall size and appeal of the unit.
Major updates have already been taken care of, including a new roof installed within the last four years, saving you future expenses. Additional highlights include a dedicated parking spot and a rare, spacious backyard—a true find in the city.
Whether you're looking to live in one unit and rent the other, or expand your investment portfolio, this property checks all the boxes.
Welcome home to Elmwood Village—where city living meets community charm!
