Seeking a turn-key investment? Look no further. This oversized two-family home presents an excellent opportunity for investors or owner-occupants looking to maximize rental income. With a brand new roof replaced a year ago and a meticulously maintained and updated interior, much of the major work has already been completed. Each unit features in-unit laundry for tenant convenience. The first-floor unit offers two fireplaces, two bedrooms and one bath. The second-floor unit spans two levels, combining the second and third floors for a spacious five-bedroom layout and as an added bonus, the unit will be conveyed fully furnished. With some additional investment and the adding of a kitchen, the third floor could be converted into its own legal unit, transforming this property into a lucrative three-family home. Outside, a long private driveway leads to ample parking space in the rear and plenty of street parking for entertaining guests. This house is completely ready to go, the only thing left to do is to purchase it. Book your showing today and see this property's potential for yourself. The photos truly speak for themselves.
