01About this home

Looking for a smart investment? Check out this solid brick 2-flat in hot McKinley Park! Located on a quiet one-way street, this building offers so much for the price. Both units are 2-bedroom/1-bath with ample living and closet space and are identical. Walk into the living room with plenty of space to be comfortable. There is one bedroom off the living room that can easily fit most bed sizes, along with space for a dresser. Then walk past the bathroom, which has recently been upgraded with new shower tile. Before making your way into the large kitchen, there is the second bedroom that is almost a mirror image of the first, with space for most bed sizes and a dresser. The kitchen has a gallery layout with space for a table to eat at. Then, through the kitchen is the enclosed porch where laundry can easily fit (hook-ups in both units and 1st floor has a washer/dryer), along with additional storage. The attic is not built out or dormered out, but it is still usable as is or can be transformed into a much larger usable space. The backyard has space to enjoy, and the property also has a 2-car detached garage! This building is in great overall shape; it is just waiting for someone to add the finishing touches to make it truly amazing. You don't want to miss this opportunity to own a wonderful building in an exploding area now, before the prices skyrocket! Sold "as-is."
