Description

Welcome to your next opportunity! Each apartment has undergone significant renovations during current ownership, resulting in a lovely, turn key investment opportunity in one of the most appealing locations in downtown. Upgrades throughout include hardwood floors, updated kitchens and baths, and sensible, spacious living areas. Apt 1 was a thriving Airbnb, and more recently a furnished mid term rental to abide by recent city regulations. The remaining apartments are occupied by tenants that would love to stay, and opportunity for upside remains in those rent prices. Heat and electricity are seperated, with natural gas radiators providing a highly efficient heat source for tenants. 3 of the apartments have their own laundry facilities, an unusual and highly desirable amenity for affordable apartments. All of this is located across from the lovely Musser Park, and just a short walk from the wonderful amenities of downtown Lancaster. Many amazing dining destinations, shopping, the arts scene, the nightlife and so much more are at your fingertips in this location. For investors, buy this for the appreciation and cashflow, or for an owner occupant this could make a wonderful opportunity for a low down payment FHA purchase and having a large portion of your living expenses covered. Take this opportunity to own your very own piece of thriving Lancaster!
