This unique offering includes a classic brick 3-unit multifamily building, a beautifully updated 3-bedroom 2-bath coach house, and a detached 3-car brick garage-creating multiple income streams and exceptional flexibility for investors or owner-occupants alike.

Recently updated, it features newer flooring, renovated bathrooms, three bedrooms, two full baths, and private in-unit laundry. Its independent layout and modern finishes make it highly desirable for a variety of rental strategies. Adding even more value is the detached 3-car brick garage, offering additional rental income potential or secure owner storage.
