Property Description

Investor's dream in one of Rochester's most sought-after neighborhoods! This charming 1924 two-unit sits just steps from Genesee Park Blvd in the heart of the 19th Ward — walkable to Genesee Valley Park and minutes from the University of Rochester and Strong Memorial Hospital, making it a perennial tenant magnet. Both units are generously sized at 2 beds/1 bath each and loaded with character: original hardwood floors, beautiful gumwood trim and moldings, and a stunning built-in gumwood bookcase with leaded glass doors. A brand new tear-off roof, maintenance-free vinyl siding, and aluminum soffits mean the big-ticket exterior work is already done. One unit is owner-ready; the other has a long-term tenant on a month-to-month lease at $950/month. Market rents are running $1,450–$1,600 with updated kitchens — a light cosmetic refresh could significantly boost your returns. Two-car garage and blacktop driveway round out this turn-key opportunity. Delayed negotiations — offers due Tuesday, March 31st. Don't sleep on this one.
