Each unit has its own washer, dryer, and dishwasher, along with new heating and cooling systems. The building is made up of two 2-bedroom, 1-bath units and two 3-bedroom, 1-bath units, all featuring in-unit laundry. Whether you’re an investor looking for a low-maintenance, turn-key income property or an owner-occupant interested in house hacking, this is a rare opportunity to own one of the most thoroughly updated multi-family properties on the market.
