Live in one. Rent the other. Or add a beautifully rehabilitated historic duplex to your investment portfolio. 540–542 Grafton Avenue offers two spacious 2-bedroom, 1-bath residences and a level of rehabilitation rarely found in a two-family property. This is not investor-grade work. The comprehensive, architect-designed rehabilitation was completed with residential-quality materials and careful attention to the character of the original home. Improvements include two new 200-amp electrical panels, new electrical wiring, new plumbing, new HVAC and central air, new Pella windows with a 10-year warranty, new kitchens and baths, in-unit laundry, restored hardwood floors, insulation, foundation stabilization and a sump pump. The exterior has been repaired and painted, with extensive porch and e xterior improvements. Located in the Grafton-Rockwood-Wroe Historic District, with a 15-year tax abatement (on improvements) application in process. Move-in ready for an owner-occupant and turnkey for an investor—historic character, modern systems and quality workmanship throughout.
