### Agent Description
Investment/value-add opportunity in the heart of Germantown! This vacant duplex offers flexibility for investors or owner-occupants looking to house-hack. One side features a 1 bed/1 bath layout, while the other offers a spacious 3 bed/1 bath - one unit has already been updated, giving you a head start on maximizing rental income or living in one side while renovating the other. With both units vacant, you have full access for renovations, inspections, or immediate move-in without tenant coordination. Germantown continues to be one of Louisville's most sought-after neighborhoods, known for its walkability, local restaurants, and tight-knit community feel - and opportunities to own here at this price point don't come around often. Bring your vision and make this property your own. Don't miss your chance to invest in one of Louisville's hottest up-and-coming areas!
