Description

Here is an opportunity for you in a convenient Bangor location just minutes from hospitals, schools, and downtown, this two-unit property offers a strong opportunity for both investors and owner-occupants alike. With Bangor's consistent rental demand, this is a property that makes sense whether you're looking to generate income or offset your own living expenses. Unit 180, located on the first floor, features a layout that blends character and updates. Hardwood floors run through the living room and formal dining room, while the kitchen has been updated with butcher block countertops and modern finishes. A full bathroom completes the first floor. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms, all with laminate flooring and closets, including a primary bedroom with a walk-in closet. Unit 178 offers a similar layout, with hardwood flooring in the living and dining areas and an updated kitchen. The second floor includes three bedrooms and a full bath, with a mix of laminate and hardwood flooring throughout the bedrooms. Both units have access to rear deck space, adding a practical outdoor area for tenants or owner use. The location adds to the appeal, just a 3-minute drive to Eastern Maine Medical Center, within walking distance to William S. Cohen School and Cameron Stadium, 2 minutes to Abraham Lincoln School and Chapin Park, and approximately 11 minutes to Bangor International Airport. Whether you're looking to add to your portfolio or live in one unit while renting the other, this Bangor duplex offers flexibility and solid potential.
