This up/down duplex is an excellent investment for either an owner-occupant or investor-owner with strong cash flow. The house features 2 bedrooms on the main floor unit, and 3 bedrooms on the second floor unit. Both units have 1 full bathroom each. The main level unit has a natural gas forced air furnace, and the second floor unit has
electric base board heat with digital/programmable thermostats. Both units are currently occupied by good tenants who wish to stay, however both leases are month-to-month. The house and garage were just re-roofed with impact resistant shingles, and come with a 50 year warranty. The first floor unit has a brand new high efficiency furnace.
