Step into the charm of a classic 1939 true duplex that evokes the sophisticated feel of a London row house-set on a beautiful, tree-lined street in a warm, neighborly community. Easy walking distance to North Avenue restaurants. This two-bedroom, two-bathroom home offers generous living space and timeless architectural character, with the opportunity to add your personal touch. Inside, you'll find wood floors throughout, a spacious living and dining area with great flow, an adjoining kitchen, and a walk-out to a small back deck-perfect for morning coffee or evening unwinding. Upstairs, the primary bedroom offers excellent closet space, and a full bath adds convenience. Downstairs, the unfinished basement includes another full bathroom (unused and temporarily inoperable) and holds real potential for a third bedroom or flexible living area. The home has been thoughtfully improved with newer modern windows, a brand new furnace (2024), new hot water heater (2023) (might be 2021 and I will verify this week) and a washer and dryer (2020). The garage has been upgraded with new siding and a new roof, and the exterior brick has been recently tuckpointed, preserving the home's classic appeal while ensuring peace of mind. The duplex shares certain ownership costs with its connected unit, offering an appealing alternative to condo living with more privacy and independence. A private backyard, one-car garage, and a neighborhood full of friendly dog-walkers complete the package. While there's still a lot of aesthetic updates that are required, the major costs are spent. This home offers great bones, smart updates, and an unbeatable location. A rare opportunity for buyers with vision!
