Property Description
Rare duplex opportunity in Mapleton—ideal for investors, multi-generational living, or owner-occupants seeking rental income. This 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom duplex offers two identical 2-bed/1-bath units on a spacious 0.23-acre lot with plenty of room for RV parking, boat storage, hobbies, and outdoor enjoyment. Each unit was lightly remodeled by previous owners (2018 and 2019) with updates including bathroom fixtures, flooring, paint, lighting, insulation, doors, window screens, and kitchen appliances. The roof was replaced in 2017, and both units feature electric baseboard/wall heat and public water. One unit is currently owner-occupied, while the other is tenant-occupied through July 31, 2026, offering flexible transition options for the new owner. Each side of the duplex includes its own carport, washer and dryer hookups, and private driveway access. The large, mostly fenced backyard and expansive side yard provide excellent outdoor space for gardening, recreation, pets, or additional parking and storage. Expansive windows throughout both units bring in natural light and create a welcoming, open feel. The open-concept layout connects the kitchen, dining, and living areas, offering functionality and room to cook, gather, and enjoy everyday living. Located on a quiet street in the heart of Mapleton, this property is less than a mile from Mapleton Elementary, Mapleton Middle School, and Mapleton High School. Mapleton is a charming rural community of approximately 500 residents, known for its peaceful atmosphere, tight-knit neighbors, and limited housing inventory. The Siuslaw River, Knowles Creek, Snell Creek, and Plowman Creek are all nearby, offering outdoor recreation and natural beauty year-round. Florence and the Oregon Coast are just 15-20 minutes away, providing easy access to beaches, dining, shopping, and the Three Rivers Casino. Eugene is about an hour's drive, offering additional employment, healthcare, education, and entertainment options for those who enjoy small-town living with convenient access to larger hubs. With no HOA, low property taxes, and strong rental demand in a community with very limited housing supply, this duplex presents an exceptional investment opportunity. Live in one unit and rent the other to offset your mortgage, or manage both as income-producing rentals in a market where duplexes are uncommon and highly sought after. Whether you're a first-time buyer, an investor building a portfolio, a family seeking multi-generational living options, or someone drawn to the slower pace and natural beauty of rural Lane County, this property offers flexibility, income potential, and a quality foundation that's move-in ready. Schedule your showing today and discover what makes this Mapleton duplex such a rare find.
