Property Description

This spacious porchfront rowhome has tenants on a one-year lease for $2,200/month. Perfect for someone looking to get started as a real estate investor, this is a turn-key property just north of the Woodland Ave corridor, right off the USP campus and a few short blocks from Clark Park. The renovation is not fancy, but all the important stuff was done—new electric, including hardwired smoke detectors, plumbing, windows, and a dedicated cable line and 20-amp circuit in each bedroom—with safety and convenience as top priorities. The living room with high ceilings and decorative fireplace has a wide archway leading the dining room/kitchen. There is also a powder room on this floor and a small rear bedroom with access to the rear yard. The second floor has a large front bedroom with pretty original armoire, a large rear bedroom, a smaller middle bedroom and a spacious ceramic tile hall bathroom. The finished basement has another bedroom and full bath and offers a washer and dryer, so no trips to the laundromat needed. Bonus: The newer blower and ductwork are AC-ready; all a new owner has to do to is install a condenser and add value for increased rents.

Can be sold as a package with 1244 S Markoe St.
