Description

AMAZING INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY JUST OUTSIDE THE CENTER OF SCRANTON!!! This beautifully renovated side-by-side duplex is an excellent opportunity for investors and owner-occupants alike. Unit 517, currently occupied, is a very roomy one-bedroom, one-bathroom unit with a front porch that has been completely renovated, including a new eat-in kitchen, bathroom, and flooring throughout. Additional features include a formal dining room, laundry hook-ups, and a rear exit for easy access to the backyard. Unit 519 is a massive four-bedroom, two-full-bathroom unit with two bonus rooms. A primary bedroom with a fully renovated en-suite bathroom and tons of storage throughout this apartment allows for plenty of extra living space. The modern offerings of this unit continue into the additional renovated bathroom, kitchen, and attached laundry room. This unit also includes an upstairs rear entrance, which would make adding a third apartment possible, easily maximizing income and adding additional equity to this already cash-flowing property. The backyard is fully fenced in, perfect for pets, and leads to a detached two-car garage with a heater that presents endless storage or even more income potential. This property has been completely renovated, including new HVAC systems, plumbing, and electrical work. A full basement with an outside entrance makes for easy maintenance and offers even more storage. Don't miss your opportunity at this amazing turn-key investment property that allows you to make a profit from day one!
