LIVE/WORK/INCOME OPPORTUNITY! Located in Iowa City’s highly sought after historic northside, this fully renovated UniverCity duplex offers a rare owner occupied investment opportunity just minutes from downtown, campus, and Mann Elementary. Rebuilt through the UniverCity Program in 2019/2020, this renewed home features two thoughtfully designed living spaces that feel intentional, efficient, and move in ready. The upper level is a bright European inspired efficiency apartment, ideal for rental income or guest space. The main level offers a comfortable one bedroom residence with a functional layout, great natural light, and easy everyday living. Both units were extensively updated with new kitchens, new bathrooms, new flooring, new HVAC systems, laundry on each level, a new roof, and spray foam insulation in the attic for energy efficiency and comfort. Outside, enjoy a newer limestone patio, fresh paint fall 2025, off street parking, and a two car garage, which is a major advantage in this historic neighborhood. UniverCity guidelines allow you to live in one unit while renting the other, making this an excellent option for buyers seeking flexibility, income potential, and long term value in one of Iowa City’s most desirable areas. Sauna is negotiable and can be removed prior to closing.
