This charming and light-filled side-by-side Spanish Mediterranean duplex offers the prospective purchaser (be it a first-time homebuyer or investor) a variety of options and income potential! Both of the units have one bedroom and one bathroom, hardwood floors throughout and feature open floor plans. And the two units are connected via a shared laundry room in the rear. Both kitchens and bathrooms have been stylishly updated and there is ample storage and closet space. The perfect-for-entertaining backyard is spacious and spectacular with brick pavers, mature trees and colorful plants! There is also a studio/shed, perfect for the artist or musician. The vibrant Allendale location is the definition of convenience, with easy access to shopping and restaurants, both 580 and 880, the Fruitvale BART station, and the Laurel District. Both units will be delivered vacant at the close of escrow!
