More About 170 E 42nd Street
Exceptional turnkey multi-unit investment property and ideal house-hacking opportunity in Covington! This impressive triplex spans approximately 3,683 square feet and offers day-one cash flow from established residents in the upper units.
The ground-level suite, Unit 1A, is the perfect turnkey owner-occupant residence, featuring a premium grey epoxy flake floor, an industrial open-concept layout with an exposed black-painted ceiling, a modernized kitchen with white shaker-style cabinetry, and a versatile spare room completely finished with fresh drywall, paint, and a drop ceiling. The additional units offer massive layouts and steady rental income, complete with historic charm like a bay-window alcove and an exposed brick accent pillar, providing an excellent canvas for future value-add updates.
Major building upgrades include a brand-new rubber roof backed by a transferable warranty, and true permanent unit separation--meaning all interior connecting doors have been permanently walled up to guarantee absolute privacy and sound isolation between units. The exterior features a zero-maintenance zero-scape design with crisp white rock chips.
Interior photos have been digitally decluttered to respect resident privacy. A strict 48-hour advance notice is required for all tours.
