Charming Red Brick Tudor in Morningside – A Unique Duplex with Endless Potential, Welcome to 1553 Johnson Road NE, a classic red brick Tudor in the sought-after Morningside neighborhood. This legal duplex, formerly operated as a non-conforming triplex, brims with character and endless possibilities. The property features two separate apartments on the main level and a fully independent unit upstairs. The seller is offering a generous $20,000 credit towards a brand-new roof and upgraded exterior air conditioning for the upper apartment, giving you peace of mind and added value for your investment! The two main-level apartments offer unique layouts. One is a cozy one-bedroom, one-bathroom unit with a spacious eat-in kitchen and direct access to the lower terrace level laundry area and basement storage. The second unit features two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room, a dining room, an enclosed porch, and kitchen access to shared laundry and storage space. Both kitchens are in mid-renovation and ready to be completed with minimal effort. The upstairs unit is a bright two-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment with a living room and sunroom overlooking lush trees, offering a serene escape. The clean and spacious lower terrace level houses the laundry and storage area, with potential for conversion into additional living space. Additionally, the property includes a two-car garage with ample parking and turnaround space.
