About this home
Perfectly positioned just a short walk from the vibrant Van Aken District, this beautifully updated two-family home offers an exceptional opportunity for both investors and owner-occupants. Extensively renovated in 2015, the property features major improvements including updated Romex electrical wiring, modern plumbing, stylish kitchens and bathrooms, central air conditioning throughout both units, and the addition of a dedicated third-floor laundry area to service the upper unit. Best of all, the home is currently vacant, allowing an owner-occupant to choose their preferred unit while generating rental income from the other—or giving investors the flexibility to lease both units at current market rates. The first-floor unit offers two spacious bedrooms, one full bathroom, beautiful hardwood floors, and an updated kitchen complete with quality cabinetry, granite countertops, and abundant storage. The expansive upper unit spans the second and third floors and features four bedrooms, two full bathrooms, hardwood flooring throughout (with brand-new carpet installed in one bedroom this week), and an equally impressive updated kitchen featuring quality cabinetry, granite countertops, and ample storage. The upper unit also enjoys the convenience of its own dedicated laundry area. The large basement provides excellent storage space and includes a separate laundry area for the first-floor unit. Outside, you'll find a two-car garage with additional off-street parking for a third vehicle, a charming grassy yard, and peace of mind knowing the exterior received a fresh coat of paint in 2026 along with extensive masonry work completed the same year. Whether you're looking to build your investment portfolio or offset your mortgage with rental income, this turnkey property in one of Shaker Heights' most desirable locations is an opportunity you won't want to miss.
