Welcome to 1140/42 Ralph Terrace, a Richmond Heights duplex that proves you really can have beauty and brains. Built in 1935 and completely reimagined in 2021, this is the kind of investor opportunity that doesn’t come with a to do list. It comes with keys, cash flow, and peace of mind. Each side offers 2 beds, 1 bath, thoughtful updates throughout, and long term tenants already in place, making this a turnkey income producer from day one. Whether you’re expanding your portfolio or looking for an owner occupant setup with built-in mortgage help, the options here are as solid as the numbers. Inside both units, you’ll find bright, open living and dining spaces with fresh paint, large double hung windows, beautiful millwork, and archways that remind you this home still knows its history. The kitchens have been fully upgraded with stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, white cabinetry, subway tile backsplashes, and even a wine fridge, because priorities matter. In-unit washer and dryer make everyday living easy, and the updated bathrooms feature walk-in showers, modern lighting, and granite topped vanities. Both bedrooms are spacious with generous closets, crown moulding, and great natural light, and one bedroom in each unit offers walkout access to the backyard/decks. Off street parking and incredible curb appeal with mature landscaping complete the package. Located on a quiet, tree lined street just minutes from Clayton, Maplewood, and Highway 40, this duplex offers the charm of suburban living with unbeatable access to *everything*. Fully renovated, fully leased, and fully ready to perform. Richmond Heights rarely makes it this easy. Cheers!
