About this home

The Ultimate Duplex Package Deal: Turnkey Living & Blank-Canvas Equity at a Discounted Bundle Seize an extraordinary two-unit opportunity with this entire duplex package offering at 207 & 209 Yard Street, now available together at an attractive bundled discount. Seller will consider including NEW KITCHEN CABINETS valued at over $10,000.00 with a full price offer and acceptable terms and conditions. Whether you are an investor looking for dual cash-flow potential, a savvy buyer seeking to live in one side while building instant equity next door, or a visionary looking to combine both halves into one sprawling single-family estate, this property provides unmatched flexibility and immediate value. **209 Yard Street (PACC2008404): Turnkey, Modern, & Move-In Ready** Step directly into refined comfort on the mostly renovated side of the building. The main level is designed for effortless living and entertaining, featuring a welcoming living room that opens to a private scenic porch, a formal dining room, and an expansive eat-in kitchen with generous table space. Just beyond the kitchen sits a contemporary full bathroom equipped with a sleek walk-in shower. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite is an architectural highlight, complete with a vaulted knotty pine ceiling, a cooling ceiling fan, walk up attic access, and dual walk-in closets (one in the bedroom and a second in the en-suite). The en-suite bathroom boasts modern tile work and a full tub/shower combination. A comfortable second bedroom rounds out the upper level. Outside, enjoy multiple relaxation zones, including a front porch, side porch, side patio, and a dedicated side walkout. Mechanics are anchored by a reliable, highly efficient EFM Stoker oil hot water heating system. New ROOFS (documentation available) and all NEW replacement WINDOWS have been installed. **207 Yard Street (PACC2008406): Gutted Down to the Studs & Ready to Finish** The adjoining unit eliminates the expensive, labor-intensive demolition... phase--all the heavy lifting has already been done. Stripped down to the studs, this side features high-efficiency replacement windows, newly initiated electrical wiring, and a winterized oil-burning furnace. Rear Rubber Roof has been replaced and REPLACEMENT WINDOWS installed (excepting enclosed porch). Because the interior framing is exposed, you hold full creative control over the layout: * Easily configure a 2- to 3-bedroom floor plan. * Ample space on the main floor to establish a first-floor bedroom and full bath. * Select building materials currently on site are negotiable with an acceptable offer. * Sold strictly as-is, ready for your drywall, finishes, and personal design choices. Endless Possibilities for Investors & End-Users * **The Grand Single-Family Estate:** The current owners envisioned opening the interior demising wall to merge both units into a magnificent, multi-story single-family home with abundant living areas, multiple porches, and generous bedroom suites. * **The Ideal "House-Hack":** Move immediately into the turnkey side at 209 Yard Street while you finish 207 Yard Street at your own pace, creating a future high-yield rental, in-law suite, or guest wing. * **Dual-Stream Investment:** Capitalize on the roaring tourism market by renting one or both units as standard long-term leases or high-demand short-term vacation rentals. **Location & Lifestyle** Located just minutes from the historic, Victorian charm of downtown Jim Thorpe--often celebrated as the "Switzerland of America"--and the revitalization of historic downtown Tamaqua. The region is a premier four-season destination brimming with: Passenger train excursions via the Lehigh Gorge Scenic Railway, Mountain biking and hiking along the renowned D&L Trail and Mauch Chunk Lake Park, Whitewater rafting, kayaking, and fishing along the Lehigh River, Artisan shopping, vibrant galleries, live music venues, and fine dining.
