About This Home
Discover an exceptional opportunity in one of Albany's most sought-after neighborhoods! This well-maintained 4-unit multi-family property sits in the heart of the vibrant Center Square district steps from Washington Park, trendy restaurants, boutique shops, and the energy of downtown Albany. With its classic architecture, tree-lined streets, and walkable lifestyle, Center Square consistently attracts strong rental demand from professionals, students, and long-term tenants alike. Currently configured as four separate living spaces, the property is legally zoned for three units. The upstairs unit has been thoughtfully divided into two distinct apartments, delivering immediate owner occupancy or additional income potential. One of these upstairs spaces is non-conforming, but the City of Albany's recent declaration of a housing crisis and its streamlined ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) approval process open a possible path for the new owner to legalize the second upstairs unit and maximize returns. Whether you're expanding your portfolio or making Center Square your home while generating income, this property delivers location, income, and upside potential in one of Albany's most desirable historic districts.
