Unit Interiors:
The commercial spaces in this Old Goucher mixed-use property have been customized by their tenants. Long-term barber shop tenant Faded added a half bathroom to the space after moving in back in 2016. His suite features laminate flooring, high ceilings, and track lighting. The basement serves as a social gathering space, offering two large rooms, a full bathroom, a storage room, and a utility room.
The upper floors house a spacious two-story, four-bedroom residence filled with abundant natural light, high ceilings, and generous room sizes. The apartment boasts an oversized living and kitchen area with white wood cabinetry, laminate countertops, and modern appliances, including a built-in microwave and dishwasher. Two bathrooms feature vinyl tubs with enclosures and modern vanities, while an in-unit laundry room adds convenience.
Utility Breakdown:
The apartment operates on its own gas-fired furnace with central air, a dedicated gas-fired water heater, and separate gas and electric meters, making it fully self-contained. Residential tenants are expected to pay their own utilities, and the landlord has the option to bill back the tenant for a portion of the water costs, reducing overall expenses.
The first-floor and basement units share a separate gas-fired furnace and water heater. The property has two electric meters and a combination of copper and PEX interior supply lines. Vinyl replacement windows are installed throughout, enhancing energy efficiency and minimizing maintenance. Tenants benefit from three off-street parking spots in the rear.
Per the commercial leases, the landlord is responsible for electric, heat, and water expenses. The basement tenant is secured through 1/31/2028, with 3% annual rent increases, while the barbershop lease extends through 1/31/2029, featuring 5% yearly rent escalations. These structured increases provide steady income growth and long-term stability for the property.
