RARE RARE RARE: Charming mirror DUPLEX in a wonderful location
This is a great opportunity for a starter home with income to help build equity, or live side by side with a friend or family member. You’ll feel you are living in one of the last small village settings in Concord when you move into this charming neighborhood. Every amenity you could hope for is close by and easy to navigate. Just a 2 short-block stroll takes you to Todos Santos Plaza, with a park, shops, a multitude of restaurants, the Saturday Farmers Market, and year round events. A 6 short-block stroll gets you to the Concord Bart Station and an easy commute all the way to either SFO or Oakland airports. Nearby you’ll find a wealth of local parks and activities for your enjoyment. If you MUST commute to the office, this neighborhood is convenient to every possible transportation corridor, including Hwys 242, 680, 4, & the Port Chicago Hwy.
The duplex is comprised of 2 bedroom, 1 bath side by side units of equal size and layout (mirror, approx 775 sq ft each). The only adjoining wall being the interior walls of the garage! Each unit has its own one-car garage with automatic door and each provides interior access from the garage directly to the kitchen. There is ample street parking. Each unit has its own private and separate fenced yard.
The owners unit, currently vacant, has been recently and tastefully updated with gleaming hardwood floors, stylish eat-in kitchen, and an updated bath that includes an elegant tiled shower over tub. Generous closets, newer window shades and updated vinyl windows, wood cabinets, and stone counters make this home feel modern and well maintained. The tenant occupied unit includes stainless appliances, wood cabinets, and stone kitchen counters. Not as updated, but easy cosmetic potential if you plan to owner occupy both.
Research shows there are very few mirror duplexes of this type in Concord, so this is a rare opportunity for the buyer looking to create a co-housing ownership.
