This is a two-unit up-down duplex in Paris, Ontario, built in 1910 and sitting on a corner-adjacent lot off Dundas Street. Each unit has one bedroom, a private entrance, in-suite laundry, and its own parking space. The units are separately metered, which keeps expense tracking straightforward for an investor.
The main unit has been recently renovated and comes vacant on closing. The upper unit runs on a gas space heater rather than central forced air — worth factoring into your carrying cost estimates. The basement is partial and unfinished.
The RM1-26 zoning is the wild card here. It opens the door to office, medical, dental, or studio use alongside residential, giving a future owner more options than a standard duplex. Buyers should confirm permitted uses directly with the municipality.
