1017 Washtenaw Road

Exceptional investment opportunity just steps from Eastern Michigan University. This well-maintained duplex at 1017 Washtenaw Rd features two spacious 3-bedroom, 1-bath units, offering immediate income potential and long-term upside in a high-demand rental location. One unit is currently occupied, providing in-place income, while the second unit is vacant and move-in ready - ideal for an owner-occupant or an investor looking to maximize rents. The flexible setup allows for immediate occupancy, value-add leasing, or a hybrid investment strategy. Positioned less than 100 yards from EMU's campus, this property benefits from consistent tenant demand and proximity to Downtown Ypsilanti, major corridors, and I-94. Each unit offers functional layouts with generous living space, and the lower unit includes in-unit laundry. A standout feature is the expansive private parking lot with capacity for up to 12 vehicles - an uncommon advantage in this area that enhances rental appeal and opens the door for future possibilities. The lot offers potential for reconfiguration or expansion (subject to approvals), adding further long-term value. Additional highlights include updated wood siding completed in 2020 and a current Certificate of Occupancy already in place. Whether you are building your portfolio or seeking a property that can offset your mortgage while you live on-site, this duplex delivers location, income, and scalability in one of Ypsilanti's most reliable rental pockets.
