LEGAL Duplex in the Heart of Downtown Guelph! Dreaming of homeownership with added financial flexibility? This legal duplex in Guelph's vibrant downtown core could be the perfect opportunity. Live in one unit and rent out the other to help offset your mortgage, an ideal setup for investors or first-time buyers looking to build equity over time. The main unit is spacious and full of character. It includes a large eat-in kitchen with stainless steel appliances and a bright front living room that offers plenty of natural light. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms and a bonus office or den, which is perfect for those working from home, and a functional 4-piece bathroom finishes off the second floor. There's also a sunroom for additional living space during the warmer months (currently unheated), adding flexibility and charm to the layout. The second unit is a one-bedroom apartment featuring a generous living room, a compact galley kitchen, and a practical 3-piece bathroom. Both units are carpet-free, making them easy to maintain and clean. While the property could benefit from some updates, it offers solid potential and a flexible layout to customize to your needs. Outside, there's parking for two vehicles and a beautifully maintained side yard with mature perennials and shrubs perfect for relaxing or entertaining in the summer. Located just a short walk to the best of downtown Guelph, including the Farmers Market, The Bookshelf, Fixed Gear Brewing, the GO Train, and VIA Rail. Whether you're looking to invest, renovate, or live in one unit while renting the other, this is a rare opportunity in a sought-after location. Welcome to downtown Guelph where community and convenience meet!
