Yes, you CAN afford a starter home…especially when you make your first home a DUPLEX that will become an even more lucrative investment as you step up in the future! But for now, let your tenant pay a large chunk of your monthly housing expenses…and property taxes on this home are also ultra low (only $972/year for 2026). Don’t want a duplex? You can easily convert this back to a single family home if you’re so inclined. Light, bright, and airy, this all-brick (meaning “low exterior maintenance”) building boasts many recent updates: Newer color-coordinated metal roof, some newer windows, some newer paint, some newer LVT flooring. Both kitchens come with electric ranges and garbage disposers. Apt 1 includes a refrigerator too! Apt 1 is a one bedroom with a pocket door between the living room and bedroom, 3 closets (one walk-in) and a private back porch. Apt 2 features 3 bedrooms and 5 closets (one walk-in). 2 ceiling fans add character and breeziness. There is a full shared basement underneath with separate utilities (gas and electric) for each apartment. 2 High efficiency furnaces (one newer) and 2 newer hot water heaters complete the infrastructure. Dual laundry hook ups and….BONUS…the buyer will receive a brand new-in-the-box washer and dryer pair! The exterior features a shared front porch, fenced front yard, and cozy, flat back yard. Location is superb: quiet street close to downtown and the northside, airport, Crafton Ingram Shopping center, Oakwood Park (tennis courts, playground), Crafton Elementary, etc etc. Parking is on-street but plentiful in nature. Public transportation is also close by.
