Duplex with Strong Upside Potential! A versatile 2-unit duplex at 721 & 723 Gold St, offered together and deeded separately. Each unit was originally designed with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, providing well-proportioned living spaces ideal for rental demand. The interior wall between the two units has been removed, currently functioning as a single-family home, but can easily be converted back to a duplex—giving buyers multiple exit strategies. The property requires a full rehab, making it a prime opportunity to add value through renovation and customization. Located in a central, convenient area with easy access to shopping, dining, and everyday amenities, this property is well-positioned to attract future tenants or buyers once renovated. Competitively priced and open to negotiation. Whether you’re looking to restore it as a duplex, reconfigure as a single-family residence, or hold as a long-term rental, this property offers strong potential. Schedule a showing today and seize your next investment opportunity!
