Property is move-in ready.
Built in 2005 (21 years old), the property is exceptionally well-maintained and move-in ready. While the kitchen and bathrooms feature original granite countertops and lacquer cabinetry that are becoming dated, the recent updates to the flooring (newly refinished hardwood and vinyl plank) and the functional, high-end nature of the systems keep it in the 'Good' category rather than 'Fair'.
Situated on a coveted corner lot on Balboa Island's Main Island, the property offers direct beach access and unobstructed panoramic harbor views from both units.
Currently configured as a duplex with two active short-term rental permits, the property provides immediate income potential or the flexibility to be converted into a large single-family estate.
The inclusion of a 4-car garage is a rare and highly valuable asset on Balboa Island, where parking is notoriously limited and highly sought after.
