Property Description

Fully renovated legal duplex offering a one-bedroom unit on the first floor and a two-bedroom unit upstairs. Both units are vacant and ready for immediate occupancy. The first floor includes a modern kitchen, spacious living area, updated bathroom, and direct access to a private backyard. There's also a fully finished basement with full-height ceilings, adding bonus space that works well for a home office, rec room, or additional living area. The second floor unit has its own private entrance, two real bedrooms, a full kitchen with new appliances, and lots of natural light. Both units have updated mechanicals, new flooring, and clean finishes throughout. Everything is done and move-in ready. A detached garage sits at the rear of the property, offering extra storage or off-street parking. The block is quiet and residential, just off Olney Avenue with easy access to public transit, Roosevelt Boulevard, and local shops. Whether you're looking to live in one unit and rent the other or lease both, this is a solid, low-maintenance building in a location that rents well and keeps value.
