Rare opportunity to own a legal duplex in North Beacon Hill with flexibility for investors, owner-occupants, or buyers exploring a 1031 exchange. The upper 2-bed, 1-bath unit will be available for owner occupancy at closing, while the ground-floor 2-bed, 1.5-bath unit is tenant occupied at $2,500/month + $60/month W/S/G—live in one unit while generating rental income from the other.

Additional property highlights include abundant storage, a newer roof, double-pane windows, gas fireplaces in each unit, plumbing and electrical updates, detached garage, and driveway parking. Conveniently located near bus service and a short distance to Beacon Hill light rail. A rare combination of location, character, income potential, and flexibility.
