Condition Rating
Poor
The property was built in 1950, making it over 70 years old. While the description states 'very well-maintained,' the exterior images show significant signs of age, including faded and stained stucco, older windows, and visible window-mounted air conditioning units, indicating a lack of central HVAC. The roof appears old but functional. The absence of interior photos, particularly for a duplex, strongly suggests that the kitchens and bathrooms are severely outdated and would require substantial renovation. Bringing this property to modern living standards would necessitate significant rehabilitation, including a full exterior refresh, HVAC installation, and likely comprehensive interior updates, which goes beyond 'minor updates' for a 'Fair' rating.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Income-Generating Asset: This duplex is explicitly marketed as an income-producing property with long-term tenants, offering immediate and stable rental revenue for investors.
Strategic Location: Its proximity to downtown and the commuter train enhances tenant desirability, ensures convenient access to amenities, and supports potential property appreciation.
Independent Utilities: Each unit features its own electrical and gas meters, simplifying tenant billing, reducing landlord management overhead, and promoting individual accountability.
Multi-Generational Living Potential: The duplex configuration provides flexibility for owner-occupancy with supplemental rental income or accommodating extended family members.
Strong Curb Appeal & Maintenance: Described as 'very well-maintained' with 'great curb appeal,' indicating a visually attractive property that is likely in good condition, minimizing immediate exterior concerns.
Cons
Property Age: Built in 1950, the property is 74 years old, which may imply older infrastructure, systems, and potential for higher maintenance costs or the need for future capital expenditures.
Limited Total Square Footage: With a total of 946 sqft for a duplex, the individual units are likely quite small, potentially limiting the tenant pool or achievable rental income compared to properties with larger living spaces.
Lack of Interior Details: The description focuses on exterior and income aspects but lacks specific interior details (e.g., number of bedrooms/bathrooms per unit, recent renovations), making it challenging to fully assess the property's current condition and appeal without a physical tour.
