About 171 Monroe St
Charming Whiteaker Tri-Plex with loads of potential and plenty of personality. Situated near the lively heart of Eugene’s iconic Whiteaker neighborhood, this one-of-a-kind tri-plex offers vintage vibes and serious upside. The front home—a classic from the early 1900s—oozes character, while two cozy, two-story units behind (a studio and a one-bedroom) add extra flexibility and income potential. A shared yard and laundry area contribute to the community feel, perfect for tenants who enjoy the neighborly vibe—or a future owner who might want to keep tabs on the garden. And the location? You can practically smell the fresh-roasted coffee and craft beer in the air. Local cafés, breweries, parks and riverpath are just a short stroll away. The property’s been on cruise control for a while under a wonderful owner and it’s ready for a fresh make over — and maybe a toolkit. The main house has a brand new roof while the back building was replaced just a few years ago. With current rents below market, there’s an opportunity to boost income through thoughtful upgrades and smart management. Whether you're dreaming of multi-generational living, offsetting your mortgage as an owner-occupant, or building long-term investment value, this property checks all the boxes. Yes, it could use a little elbow grease—and with this much charm and potential, it's more than worth the effort. Bring your imagination and unlock the full value of this Whiteaker gem.
