Property Description
Opportunity awaits with this stately 1920 triplex in the heart of Avalon! Whether you're an investor looking for a solid income-producing property or a buyer hoping to live in one unit while renting the others, this versatile multi-unit property offers tremendous potential. The building features one spacious 3-bedroom unit and two 2-bedroom units. Two of the apartments have been updated with refreshed kitchens and bathrooms. One of the updated 2-bedroom units also features a warm, cabin-like wood-paneled bedroom full of character and charm. The owner's unit on the second floor includes an updated kitchen and bathroom along with LVP flooring, creating a comfortable and move-in-ready living space. The additional 3-bedroom unit offers value-add potential and was previously approved for Section 8 housing. Current tenants have occupied the unit for the past couple of years, while one long-term tenant has happily rented one of the 2-bedroom apartments for 14 years. This classic brick property blends historic character with modern updates, making it an excellent opportunity for investors or owner-occupants seeking rental income to offset living expenses. Conveniently located near shopping, restaurants, parks, and major roadways with easy access to Downtown Pittsburgh. Great cash-flow potential in a desirable Avalon location!
