This is a legal up-down duplex on Bruce Street with two self-contained units and a separate entrance for the upper floor. The upper unit was fully renovated in 2021 — new laminate floors, refreshed kitchen, and an updated bathroom — and is currently tenanted at $1,700/month all-inclusive. The main floor unit is owner-occupied and shows more of the home's original character: parquet hardwood, white appliances, and a galley kitchen that works but hasn't been modernized.
Key mechanical updates are done: roof replaced in 2019, windows in 2016, and a new A/C system. The new wood deck off the kitchen was built in 2021. The basement is fully unfinished and used for utilities and storage only.
The lot is deep with parking for up to five vehicles on the driveway, and the backyard is divided to give each unit its own outdoor space.
