Each unit has been extensively renovated, showcasing brand new kitchens, designer-finished bathrooms, hardwood-style flooring, and fresh interior paint, all paired with efficient, functional floor plans that maximize rentability and long-term tenant appeal. The property spans approximately 3,456 SF on a quiet, tree-lined street in a sought-after rental pocket.
