L&S #1255. Need a little help paying the mortgage? This duplex could be the answer; live in one side and enjoy income from the other. This “mortgage helper” has solid bones and is situated in a desirable location on Nova Scotia’s treasured South Shore. Solid, spacious, well-maintained two unit income property centrally located within walking distance of most amenities. The units, each 3 bedroom and both currently rented, have mirror image floor plans, 2 full floors plus basement, front sunrooms, back mudrooms and walk up 3rd floor. Original features include high ceilings, large windows with lots of natural light, hardwood floors on the main level, original stairs/bannisters and mouldings/woodwork. Separate electrical services (each 100 amp), hot water baseboard heat with two furnaces and two oil tanks. 134 Bristol has new flooring on the second level and sunroom, renovated bathroom and finished 3rd floor, which serves as a children’s playroom. 136, with the same “good bones” is deserving of and would benefit from some upgrading – kitchen & bath, carpet removal on 2nd floor to expose softwood floors perhaps? Easy care vinyl siding, new metal roof on the house and garage roof recently reshingled. Fabulous oversized lot with mature maple trees, ample room for gardens, pets, kids play areas and laying hens, should you chose! Two paved driveways and single garage (used for storage) complete the package. A nice tidy investment – or live in one and enjoy income from the other. Walk to grocery stores, pet store, drugstore, recreation centre, downtown shops and Fort Point. Fabulous beaches nearby. (id:36629)
