Supplements
Each unit provides approximately 1,100 sq ft across three bedrooms and one full bath, with additional space in the walk-up attic and full basement (utilities inside, plus interior and exterior access). Tenants will appreciate separate entrances, covered front porches, small rear decks, and a shared backyard. Each side also enjoys off-street parking directly off the street - a big plus in this neighborhood. Importantly, utilities are already split: two gas boilers with separate gas meters and two separate electric meters, making this an ideal long-term hold with clean tenant accountability. While the property needs updates throughout, it has strong bones and a flexible footprint. With fresh flooring, paint, and kitchen/bath improvements, projected market rents for 3BR/1BA units in Wilkes-Barre run in the $1,200-$1,400/month range per side, creating excellent cash-flow potential once stabilized. Investors can also maximize value by finishing the walk-up attic or upgrading basements for added storage appeal. Centrally located near downtown Wilkes-Barre, major employers, shopping, and public transit, this duplex is positioned to attract steady tenant demand. Whether you're starting your portfolio, adding a value-add property to your pipeline, or planning to live in one side while renovating the other, this is a smart investment with room to grow. Call today to explore this value-priced, value-add opportunity!
