About this home

Rare 3 unit in Dunellen, completely rebuilt and expanded in 2018. Every unit has hardwood floors, an updated kitchen and bath, Andersen windows, its own laundry, and separate utilities. Unit 1 offers 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, and a sunny breakfast nook, all on one level. Unit 2 offers 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, plus finished third-floor space. Unit 3 is the standout: three levels with a 23' primary suite, 3+ bedrooms, 4 full baths, a fireplace, an enclosed porch, finished attic space, and an attached garage with a loft above. It lives like its own house. Live in one unit and let the other two help pay the mortgage, or hold all three as a turnkey investment. Current gross rents are $112, 800 a year, approx. 7% cap rate, and tenants pay all of their own utilities. Outside you'll find paver patios, a covered pergola, a deck, parking for 6, and a huge barn/garage with loft storage and workshop space. Natural gas, central air, public water and sewer. The back of the property is in a flood zone.
