Investor's dream! Well-maintained, maintenance-free brick and vinyl 4-unit investment property featuring four spacious units, each offering 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and an attached 1-car garage. At approximately 1,300 sq. ft. per unit, these apartments offer a townhome-like layout and size, making them highly desirable to tenants.

Each unit features a spacious primary bedroom with private en-suite bath and walk-in closet. Kitchens are fully equipped with stove, refrigerator, and dishwasher. Situated on an oversized lot over 165 feet deep, the property offers a fenced yard and storage shed that will remain. Ideal for the armchair investor or owner-occupant looking to build wealth while living on-site. Unit 247 is month-to-month; Unit 251 lease expires 6/30/26; Units 249 and 253 are currently vacant for easy showings and immediate rental opportunity. Market rents estimated at $1,800-$1,900 for first-floor units and $1,700 for second-floor units.
