About this home

Inside the home

This 1905 all-brick duplex gives buyers two self-contained units on a single title — each with its own kitchen, bathroom, and entrance. The floor plans show both units at roughly 550 sq ft, stacked on main and upper floors with a full unfinished basement below. Both units are original throughout. The kitchens run oak cabinets and white coil-burner ranges. The main floor bathroom is a tight 2-piece. The upper 4-piece has beadboard and subway tile that reads more tired than vintage. Flooring has been refreshed in spots, but this is broadly a property that needs updating across the board. The value here is the duplex structure and the brick bones. Live in one unit, rent the other, or convert back to a single-family home — the layout supports all three. Budget for cosmetic work in both units before either one commands top rents.

  • All-brick construction
  • Legal duplex with two self-contained units
  • Each unit has its own kitchen and separate entrance
  • Newer dark laminate flooring in upper unit bedrooms
  • Full unfinished basement with additional potential
  • Floor plans confirm two similarly sized units at ~550 sq ft each
