Description
6 bed, 2 bath legal up/down duplex just minutes from Vancouver Island University. Good fit for a first-time buyer looking for a mortgage helper, or an investor ready to add to the portfolio. The upper level has 3 bedrooms, a big open living room, newer carpets, and a large sundeck with newer railings and stairs. Bathroom keeps its vintage charm with a claw-foot tub and separate shower. This unit sits vacant right now, so quick possession is possible. Downstairs is 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, with ceramic tile throughout for easy care and durability. Currently rented at $2,400/month, live upstairs and rent the other side, or set both units at market rent. Newer windows throughout, both hot water tanks replaced in 2023, vinyl siding, and a fresh exterior paint job. Each unit has its own laundry, its own storage, and its own hydro meter. Outside you've got parking for around 5 vehicles, a fenced yard, and a garden bed ready to plant. (Measurements and data approximate; verify if important.)
