This turnkey duplex presents an exceptional opportunity for savvy investors or owner-occupants seeking supplemental rental income (live in one unit, rent out the other!). Featuring identical, well-designed layouts, each unit offers 2 comfortable bedrooms, 1 full bathroom, and an inviting open-concept living room that seamlessly connects to the kitchen. The move-in ready lower unit boasts freshly updated finishes with sleek LVP flooring, bright white cabinetry, and a clean, neutral palette, while the tenant-occupied upper unit provides immediate cash flow. Complete with private covered entries, a spacious balcony, off-street parking, and a lush green lawn, this low-maintenance property combines long-term value, strong rental history, and immense potential. Several updates in recent years including a new roof (late 2023), newer window units, a new kitchen in the lower unit (2024), fresh paint, and more!

Chapel Hill, located between Tallmadge Avenue and East Market Street, is a residential and retail Akron neighborhood with mid-century ranch streetscapes and a hilltop, tree-lined feel. The neighborhood’s energy concentrates around the Tallmadge Ave corridor near the Chapel Hill Mall site, where big-box storefronts, casual eateries, and service shops cluster along wide arterials. Ranch and split-level homes mix with tidy brick colonials, giving blocks a consistent, practical rhythm. The former mall footprint has become a marker of change, with surrounding plazas carrying much of the day-to-day commerce. Outdoor space comes via nearby parks and the Little Cuyahoga Valley, adding a green edge to the built landscape.
