Located in the heart of downtown on a street known for both professional and residential appeal, this Victorian-style duplex offers versatility, character, and reliable income potential. Each unit-one upstairs, one downstairs-offers over 1,140 square feet of well-maintained and tastefully furnished living space. All utilities are separate for each unit.
