Description
Here is a great opportunity to own a charming older Craftsman home with the added benefit of rental income! Converted into a duplex, the home offers two living units under one roof: a 3-bedroom, 1-bath main unit and a 1-bedroom, 1-bath second unit. Both are occupied by long-term tenants, making this an appealing investment opportunity from day one.Location is another plus! Situated on a quiet street just one block from Washington Street Park and the new Boys & Girls Club, the property is also within walking distance of downtown Burns, where you'll find local restaurants, shopping, and everyday conveniences. The hospital is just up the hill, adding even more to the convenience of this location.Each unit has its own yard, with the spacious backyard fully fenced and divided to provide separate outdoor spaces. The main unit is heated and cooled by a heat pump, while the second unit has an electric furnace. A two-car garage offers welcome convenience, especially during those wet winter months.There is also a basement with both interior access from the main unit and a separate outside entrance. With a concrete floor, a couple of additional rooms for storage, and the laundry area, it offers some useful extra space. Each unit has its own electrical panel, and a shared well provides water for irrigating the lawn.Outside, you'll find a covered front porch that's just right for enjoying your morning coffee and watching the day go by. A wraparound driveway provides convenient access, while the durable metal roof adds another practical feature. Three established fruit trees, including plum, apricot, and apple, bring a little extra enjoyment to the property. Imagine having fresh fruit right in your own backyard for pies, preserves, and more!With its classic Craftsman character, two rental units, and convenient Burns location, this property offers a lot to appreciate.Please allow 24 hour
