Price Reduced $10,000! This duplex is not one to ignore! It does need work but it is literally like having 2 houses side by side, they are mirror images of each other. Each unit has an eat-in kitchen with the cabinets and sink in a butler's pantry with pass through, such character! They have a dining room, living room, den, and full bath on the 1st floor. Each unit has 3 bedrooms on the 2nd floor. What is so unique about this property is that one of the bedrooms on the 2nd floor looks like it may have been a kitchen-type room at some point in its life, with a water closet in one unit. The cabinets are there and one unit still has the sink basin in place. With access to the 2nd floor from the stairs at the front door hall, it's conceivable with permitting from the town to convert this dwelling into 4 separate 1 bedroom units. The den on the 1st floor could be a bedroom and the upstairs units could be an eat-in kitchen with a living room and bedroom. Or 2 bedrooms? A large closet on the 2nd floor could be converted to a bathroom. Also, with permitting, perhaps a business here? So, there could be a business on the first floors and make apartments upstairs. So many options and combinations. It does need paint and the shared front porch needs to be replaced but the building is solid. Separate back porches and a full basement for storage. This private location on a dead end street is out of the flood zone. Worthy of a look for sure!! Plumbing is drained. Being sold As Is.
