Description
Own this five-unit townhouse and benefit from a terrific rent roll in a highly desirable Chelsea location. Alternatively, you can create a duplex or triplex and the remaining tenants can pay for the mortgage. Plentiful side windows, brand-new marble baths, shining oak floors and immense, quiet rear bedrooms are found throughout. Best of all is the vibrant Chelsea location. The High Line entrance is down the street, Chelsea market is a short walk away, and the West Village is at your doorstep.
All the tenants are long-term ? some have been here for 20-30 years or more ? and vacancies are extremely rare. All units are separately metered and well-maintained. Rents are slightly below market, promising the investor a healthy return on this investment right away, plus an upside.
