Property Description
A unique opportunity for investors or developers-this property includes a well-maintained two-family home plus an additional lot for a combined total of almost 2.8 acres. The current owner has already been in contact with the city, and there's potential to build multiple new homes (buyers encouraged to perform due diligence). The existing two-unit features classic charm with hardwood floors, high ceilings, original moldings, decks, and porches. Enjoy solid rental income or owner-occupy while exploring future development possibilities. A property with this much space and flexibility doesn't come around often!
