Inside the home
This is a working up/down duplex that has operated as a rental property for over 50 years. The building itself — solid pre-1920s red brick — is in reasonable structural shape, but the interiors reflect decades of rental use with minimal investment. The upper unit has had some cosmetic work: the kitchen was refreshed with white cabinets, a mosaic backsplash, and a peninsula counter. The lower unit is largely original, with a dated 1980s kitchen and an unrenovated bathroom with full-height ceramic tile from a much earlier era. Hardwood floors run through the lower unit main level. The basement is fully unfinished and shows moisture staining on the foundation walls — a home inspection should focus here. The rear lot is large, fenced, and currently gravel, which suits the parking-heavy use but offers no outdoor living space. Buyers should note the property tax reassessment currently in progress.
