$4,562Exceptional investment opportunity just minutes from NYC! This well-maintained detached 2-family home in Hackensack offers the rare benefit of side-by-side units (not stacked), providing enhanced privacy and flexibility for both owners and tenants. Each single-story unit features a separate entrance and access to a private backyard. The front unit (401) includes 3 bedrooms, a renovated bath, updated kitchen, new windows, new HVAC (forced air & central air), and new flooring. It is currently operated as a high-income Airbnb with proven returns. The back unit (403) offers 3 bedrooms plus a bonus room, 2 full baths, a fully renovated kitchen, new flooring, and a large primary suite which can accommodate a king size bed with plenty of space. Recent exterior upgrades include a new asphalt driveway, coated roof (with warranty), and a new attic fan. The property’s footprint allows for future vertical expansion, with zoning to support adding another floor. Its prime location is just a 10-minute walk to the NYC express bus with an approximate 20-25 commute to the city. Units are close to Hackensack Hospital, shopping (Costco and Target), dining options, and major malls (American Dream, Bergen Mall, and Garden State Plaza). Both units can also include furniture and appliances. Whether the intent is for the unit to be used for income generation or owner-occupancy with rental income, this is a versatile and high-potential property!
