A VERY RARE FIND HAS COME TO MARKET!!! Welcome to the expansive 2-family residence that you’ve been waiting for in the vibrant and storied city of Elizabeth! Constructed in 2011, this property is perfect for owner-occupants looking to offset expenses with a tenanted top floor, but is equally an excellent choice for investors. Offering over 3,250 square feet of living space, this special property provides a total of nine bedrooms and five full baths. The Unit 1 duplex features four bedrooms and two baths on the upper level, plus a finished ground floor flex-level with living/dining area, kitchenette, bedroom and full bath – all of which can be accessed via an interior staircase from the upper floor or by a separate private entrance at the side of the home. Unit 2 on the top floor mirrors the Unit 1 upper level layout. Unit 2 is occupied on a month-to-month basis by a long-term reliable tenant that would love to be able to stay. Thoughtfully designed for considered control over utility use, there are separate furnaces, central air conditioning units, water heaters and gas/electric meters for each of the three levels. An ample backyard allows for socializing with a crowd of friends, delightful barbecues and creating a garden to enjoy. In an area where on-street parking can be scarce, there is covered parking for 2 cars in the garage and room for an amazing 4 cars in the oversize driveway. Living in this location affords accessible parks for relaxation and sports activities, NYC transportation, access to major travel routes like the NJ Turnpike, proximity to Newark Airport, plus shopping destinations such as Jersey Gardens mall, IKEA, the near-by boutique retail and enticing myriad restaurants of downtown Elizabeth. Make it your point to come and see this versatile home today! (Some photos virtually staged or enhanced.)
