Property Description
1221-1223 Elm Street offers the independence of two townhouse-style residences under one roof. This side-by-side duplex combines the amenities often associated with single-family living with the flexibility of a duplex. Each spacious two-story residence offers approximately 1,400 square feet with 3 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms*, attached garages, in-unit laundry, and well-proportioned floor plans that thoughtfully balance shared living spaces with private bedroom areas. The property also features both private and shared outdoor spaces, creating multiple opportunities to relax, entertain, or garden. The front residence is tenant-occupied, while the rear residence is vacant, providing flexibility for immediate owner occupancy or the opportunity to secure a new tenant. Upgraded windows are found throughout most of the property. In preparation for sale, the building received a fresh exterior paint job, while the rear residence has been refreshed with new kitchen appliances (2026), luxury vinyl plank flooring, fresh interior paint, and updated lighting, providing a welcoming starting point for its next owner or resident. Whether your goal is to build long-term wealth through real estate or offset your mortgage by living in one residence while renting the other, this property offers the flexibility to adapt to a variety of ownership goals.
