About 1525 Oates St Ne
**Turnkey Rowhome with an Income-Producing Lower Level** This well-maintained NE DC rowhome offers comfortable upper-level living paired with a separate lower-level unit built for rental income. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms and a full bath; the main level includes a convenient half bath and a fully updated kitchen with all-new appliances (2022). The lower level has its own access and a proven rental track record — a rare chance to live upstairs and let the basement help cover the mortgage, or run it as a full investment property. ## Income Potential ## The lower level's numbers are documented, not projected: - **2022 Airbnb revenue: $33,386** (last full year operating as a short-term rental) - **2023–2024: $1,450/month** from a full-time tenant, all-inclusive (rent, utilities, and internet) Buyers can continue with a long-term tenant, revive the Airbnb income, or owner-occupy the upper levels while the lower level pays its way. ## Recent Updates & Repairs (Last 10 Years) - Central heater — new 2016 - Central A/C — new 2018 - Water heater — new 2024 - Kitchen appliances — all new 2022 - Basement flooring — new 2023 - Washer/dryer (2nd floor) — new 2022
