Amazing opportunity to live in one unit while generating income from the others — or add a strong performer to your investment portfolio. Welcome to this well-maintained legal duplex on the corner of Roosevelt Boulevard and Summerdale Avenue. The property features two spacious 2-bedroom, 1-bath units with identical layouts, plus finished lower-level space offering additional flexibility (5 bedrooms, 3 baths total). Recent improvements by the owner include new plumbing, a new sewer line to the street, retaining walls, and numerous interior updates. The lower level was recently renovated, while the upper units have been refreshed within the past five years. The roof is approximately five years old. A rare highlight for the area is the five-car off-street parking, adding convenience for both residents and tenants. The basement unit is currently vacant, and the two upper units have leases expiring soon — creating an excellent opportunity for an owner-occupant to move in while maintaining rental income. Whether you’re looking to offset your mortgage with rental cash flow or expand your portfolio with a versatile multi-unit property, this one offers flexibility, updates, and strong long-term potential.
