Live in one unit and collect the rent from the other or collect the rent from both. Tucked away on a private 0.51-acre cleared lot, this well-maintained 2-story duplex combines warm curb appeal with serious investment fundamentals — stability, low overhead, and immediate cash flow from day one. The yellow wood-sided exterior is clean and well-kept, framed by pine and oak trees and a manicured lawn that gives the property a private, wooded feel tenants genuinely love. A separate exterior staircase provides independent access to each unit, a small detail that makes a real difference in day-to-day tenant satisfaction. Unit 1 (downstairs) features 1 bed/1 bath with its own covered patio tucked beneath the upper deck — complete with a ceiling fan and outdoor dining area, a true outdoor living space that helps keep this unit occupied. Unit 2 (upstairs) offers a spacious 2 bed/2 bath layout and a large covered deck with lattice railings that looks out over a beautiful wooded treeline — the kind of view that photographs well and rents even better. A shared laundry room with washer and dryer included rounds out the amenity package. Both units are leased with long-term tenants who want to stay, meaning no vacancy stress or turnover costs on your end. The owner has actively maintained the property for five years, with a termite contract, a home warranty already in place, and lawn care handled — expenses stay predictable, and the property stays sharp. At 19 years old with a 6-year-old metal roof, this building hits the sweet spot: established enough to have character, young enough to perform with minimal capital expenditure on the horizon. Whether you're an experienced investor adding a turnkey asset or a house-hacker seeking built-in rental income, this property is ready to work for you from the day you close.
