About this property
Here is your opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind historic duplex in Tacoma's Hilltop neighborhood. Originally converted to a duplex shortly after construction, this classic home offers timeless character, strong income potential, and room to add value. Rescued and thoughtfully restored in the 1980s, it's now ready for its next chapter. The upper 2-bedroom unit has benefited from significant updates, including beautifully refinished original hardwood floors, fresh interior paint, and new kitchen cabinetry, while retaining its historic charm. The lower unit offers an excellent opportunity for similar improvements, allowing the next owner to build additional equity. Both units are currently occupied, providing immediate rental income from day one. Whether you're an investor or looking to expand your portfolio with a unique property, this historic duplex is full of potential.
