Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property consists of a 1947 main house and a newer ADU. While the interior shows some updates like laminate flooring and the units are functional/income-producing, the overall age of the primary structure (>70 years), presence of window AC units, and dated exterior stucco and outbuildings indicate a need for modernization and minor repairs.
The property is fully leased and generates a combined $4,800 monthly gross income from two separate units, providing immediate cash flow and a strong cap rate for investors.
With a generous 6,682 sqft lot and the rare opportunity to acquire the neighboring parcel, this asset offers significant long-term upside for portfolio growth or site expansion.
The presence of a legal, permitted ADU with separate electric meters allows for versatile use cases, including multi-generational living, house-hacking, or traditional long-term rentals.
Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1360, other record living area = 708.
The primary residence dates back to 1947, which may necessitate higher maintenance costs or capital expenditures for aging structural and mechanical systems.
The shared driveway and high-density use of the lot may limit resident privacy and create parking challenges, which could impact future tenant retention or resale appeal.
