    What's special

    This unique property offers flexibility for a single-family home or a duplex—the choice is yours! Each level boasts 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and gorgeous hardwood floors, making it perfect for families, investors, or those seeking a spacious layout. Thinking about keeping it as a duplex? You'll need to add an HVAC system upstairs to meet new requirements, but here's the great news: Grant money is available through the Invest DSM program to help fund this update. Prefer to make it a single-family home? The grant funds can also be used to modernize and customize the space to suit your needs. With a little updating, this home can truly shine. Sold as-is, this property is a blank slate waiting for your vision. Whether you’re looking to invest, create your dream home, or both, this is an opportunity you won’t want to miss. Schedule your showing today and explore the possibilities!
