Located in the heart of Auburn Gresham, this jumbo brick two-flat is a great opportunity for an owner-occupant or investor. Each unit features 3 spacious bedrooms, and the full finished basement has its own separate egress, offering plenty of additional space and potential for added income, subject to zoning and permits. Both units are in good condition and essentially rent-ready, with renovations completed within the last 5 years. Many of the major updates have already been done, including hardwood floors, newer kitchen cabinets, updated bathrooms, and recently painted interiors. Just a few cosmetic touches could really bring the property back to its full potential. The property also features a full basement, 2-car garage, and solid brick exterior. With great room sizes, a strong layout, and plenty of space, this is a property worth taking a look at. Schedule your showing today
