Overview

Description

Fantastic multi-family opportunity within walking distance to Wilkes University. Previously used as a successful student rental, this property offers versatility to continue with that investment strategy, ''house hack'' as an owner occupant, or simply add to your portfolio. Large room sizes, off street parking and private fenced in yard are additional features. Contents to be removed.
