Property Description
Welcome to 8259 Forrest Ave, a duplex in one of East Mt. Airy's most sought-after locations. The entire first-floor unit and finished basement have been completely renovated from top to bottom, so you can unpack your bags and start living in a home that feels brand new, with the added benefit of rental income from the second-floor unit.
The first-floor unit is completely renovated and offers two bedrooms, a renovated bath, and an enlarged, remodeled kitchen with an island, a place to enjoy family meals as well as entertain guests. Hardwood floors and recessed lighting create a warm, polished feel throughout.
The fully finished basement is also completely renovated and gives you a true second level of living space. It features a brand-new bathroom, washer and dryer hookups, and direct access to the side yard. Use it as a family room, guest suite, home office, or all three.
Upstairs, the second-floor unit offers two bedrooms and an updated bath, with a tenant already in place for a smooth, seamless transition.
The big-ticket items are done, too: a new roof, all-new vinyl windows, and new wall-mounted split systems providing efficient heating and air conditioning throughout. A two-car garage and front and side yard space complete the package.
Set on a quiet street, you're close to local dining, shopping, and schools.
Nothing left to do but move in.
