Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1953, this duplex is in livable condition but shows significant signs of age and outdated styling. The interior features older red carpeting, dated tile flooring, and vintage light fixtures. The kitchen and bathrooms require modernization, as noted in the listing description's mention of 'opportunity to update.' Visible minor issues, such as a hole in a bedroom ceiling and older wall heating units, confirm the property has not had a major renovation in recent decades.
Situated in the highly desirable San Clemente Southwest area, the property is within walking distance to world-class surfing, the San Clemente Pier, and boutique downtown shopping.
This duplex configuration (3BR/2BA and 1BR/1BA) provides excellent flexibility for an owner-occupant to 'house-hack' or for an investor to generate multiple streams of rental income.
With its 1950s charm and original layouts, the property offers a significant opportunity for modernization and customization to rapidly increase equity and market value.
Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =3920, other record lot size in square feet = 4000.

Despite its proximity to the beach, the listing indicates no specific views, which may limit its appreciation potential compared to other coastal properties in the same price bracket.
