Why you’ll love it
Exceptional Opportunity in the Heart of Forest Park! This distinctive brick two-flat offers an exceptional combination of timeless character, extensive updates, and an extraordinary 50 x 206-foot lot! Featuring a two-bedroom first-floor apartment and a spacious three-bedroom second-floor apartment, this property offers exciting possibilities for homeowners and investors alike. Looking for even more space? Explore the potential to duplex the second-floor apartment into the attic, creating an expansive owner's residence while maintaining rental income from the first floor! Owned by only two families, this special property has been thoughtfully maintained and improved over the years. Both kitchens have been beautifully updated, including a complete renovation of the first floor kitchen in 2024. Additional improvements include newly refinished floors, updated bathrooms, replacement of the original knob-and-tube wiring, copper plumbing improvements, two newer boilers, thermal-pane windows, and a complete roof tear-off in 2012. The remarkable lot offers an abundance of outdoor space rarely found in a property of this type. A four-car brick garage, accessible from both the concrete driveway and alley, provides exceptional parking and storage. Separate gas, electric, and heating systems add convenience and flexibility. An unfinished basement provides additional storage. Ideally situated near Forest Park's vibrant Madison Street shopping and dining district, parks, transportation, and neighborhood amenities, this is a unique opportunity to own a property with character, space, income potential, and room to grow. Whether you're looking for a smart investment or the opportunity to create your dream owner's residence, this one is not to be missed. Easy to show with notice for tenant
