Embrace the charm of yesteryear with this large, 2-family home located on the serene west side of Auburn, NY. This cherished property, nestled at the end of a peaceful city limit straddling street, boasts a grand 2847 sq feet of living space along with an unfinished basement and half-finished attic, well-suited for a myriad of renovation and customisation possibilities. Characterizing the residence is a generous plot of 0.24 acres, featuring a sizable backyard adorned with a fire pit area and a partially fenced section that ensures privacy.
One side of this classic property is currently rented, while the other has been owner-occupied, but now lies vacant, primed and ready for a revamp. This property, offering parking for three vehicles, also features a single detached garage, garnering a unique investment or owner-occupied opportunity.
Over the past two decades, significant updates have been undertaken to enhance the home’s appeal, including an overall insulation in 2014, exterior cleaning in 2024, updated floors, fresh paint in one unit in 2021, upgraded ductwork in the other unit in 2022 and new windows in 2007. The property also saw electric and plumbing updates in 2004/2005, signifying a conscious effort to retain its structural integrity while providing modern comforts.
The cherry on top is the inviting enclosed porch entryway, decked with a double-security door, front steps and a deck, all installed in 2019. Also in the same year, new double mailboxes were installed, and the front landscaping was given a refreshing makeover, enhancing the curb appeal.
This inviting home is a blank canvas, patiently waiting for its next owners to put in their personal touches and breathe new life into its storied rooms. With some necessary repairs and updates, this home could easily transition from this nostalgic gem into a dream property. As both an investment opportunity for residential investors or a future abode for a visionary homeowner, this unique dwelling promises a warm welcome to all who walk through its doors.
