Property Description

SOLD AS IS Opportunity on Livingston Ave—live in one, rent the other or add to your portfolio. This classic Arbor Hill duplex offers 4 bedrooms, 2 baths across ~1,500 sq ft (approx.) with a smart, livable layout and value-add upside.

The home's c.1890 character is ready for your updates—bring your contractor and vision. Renovate to hold, or move in and offset your mortgage with rental income. Nearby restaurants, entertainment, bus lines, and I-787 make daily life (and leasing) straightforward. Perfect for: investors seeking a steady two-unit, first-time house hackers, or buyers who want a flexible Albany address with room to add value. Sold as-is. Buyer to verify unit/legal use, utilities, and dimensions.
