This Value-Add Residential Asset is listed at $858,000, positioned near its $822,527 Fair Market Value.

The property’s standout feature is its ADU Conversion Potential via the detached garage, complemented by a prime location within the Alhambra High School District and walking distance to Cal State LA. This is a strategic acquisition for Value-Add Investors or Owner-Occupants looking to capitalize on high rental demand and forced appreciation.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1924, this property is well-maintained but reflects significant aging and outdated styles. The kitchen features older oak-style cabinetry and basic white appliances, while the bathrooms and living areas utilize dated ceramic tile flooring throughout. The presence of window AC units instead of central HVAC and the overall vintage infrastructure indicate that while the home is functional and move-in ready, it has not undergone a comprehensive modern renovation in recent decades.
Situated in a highly desirable Alhambra neighborhood, the property offers excellent walkability to shops, dining, and Cal State LA, plus a short commute to Downtown Los Angeles.
The detached garage provides a significant opportunity for an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) conversion, ideal for generating rental income or accommodating multi-generational living.
Featuring an easy-to-maintain yard and ample parking, this property is designed for convenience and efficiency in a high-demand metropolitan area.
