Turnkey duplex opportunity in the heart of Columbia City that is great for house hacking by living in one of the units or renting out both for cashflow. This well-maintained property features two updated units: Unit A features a 3-bedroom, 1-bath floorplan and Unit B features a 2-bedroom, 1-bath floorplan. Both units are currently tenant-occupied, providing immediate rental income for the next owner. Each unit has been thoughtfully updated with modern finishes with its own individual washer & dryer, helping minimize near-term maintenance while offering comfortable living spaces. Generous interiors and functional floor plans make the property well-suited for long-term rental use. Conveniently located just steps away from the Light Rail, as well as local shops, dining, and parks in Columbia City. A compelling opportunity for investors seeking a well-kept, income-producing property in a central Seattle location. The duplex comes pre-inspected.
