Outstanding investment opportunity at 1610 W Main St. in Belleville. This charming duplex, built in 1947, was renovated in 2018, and offers the option to live in the front 1-bedroom unit while also conducting business because of the C-2 zoning. And collect additional rent from the rear 2-bedroom unit. Conveniently located near public transportation and close to downtown Belleville. The front 1 bedroom unit has been rented for $550 a month but could be rented for more if the C-2 zoning was utilized. The back 2-bedroom unit has two levels, with a large open kitchen/dining area and laundry on the main level, and two bedrooms upstairs. It rented for $650/month for 5 years but could easily be rented for $750 or more. The property also has a dry basement with electricity (ideal for extra storage or even a crude man cave as it stays cool in the summer and warm in the winter with the furnace, water heater room next to it). Upgrades include copper plumbing, PVC sewer lines, and separate, upgraded electric meters. Additionally, the City has added a street light to the back parking area for improved security."
