01About this home

Exceptional opportunity for an investor or owner live in to acquire a legal 3-unit building in a prime Lakeview location. Owned by the same family for many years, this property offers tremendous potential with two vacant units and flexibility for a buyer to update as much or as little as desired. The garden unit is vacant and offers 2 bedrooms and 1 bath. The rear portion of the lower level includes a utility room with a furnace and hot water tank, along with a common laundry area featuring a washer and dryer, utility sink, and electrical panels. The first-floor unit is currently occupied by a long-term tenant on a month-to-month lease who is expected to vacate in the near future. This unit includes 3 bedrooms, 1 bath, a spacious kitchen, dining area, and a large pantry off the kitchen. The second-floor unit is vacant and features 3 bedrooms, 1 bath, a large living room, dining room, and kitchen. The top floor provides attic storage and an additional hot water tank.
