* Subject property listed price vs sold prices of comps.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property was built in 1950 (74 years old). While the listing describes it as well-maintained and fully occupied, the age and exterior appearance suggest the kitchens, bathrooms, and core systems (HVAC/Electric) are likely dated and exceed the 20-year threshold for modern updates. It appears functional for rental purposes but requires cosmetic and system modernization to meet higher standards.
This duplex features a 2-bedroom and a 1-bedroom unit with the front unit delivered vacant, offering immediate rental upside or an ideal owner-user opportunity in a high-demand area.
The generous 7,514 sq ft lot is fully gated and provides rare dual access from both the street and the rear alley, maximizing utility and potential for future development or ADU additions.
The property includes two enclosed garages, a highly desirable asset for tenants that provides secure parking and additional storage, significantly enhancing the property's marketability.
Originally built in 1950, the property may require upcoming capital improvements or modernization of major systems to ensure long-term structural integrity and efficiency.
With only 1,546 total square feet divided between two units, the individual living spaces are relatively small, which may limit the tenant pool to smaller households.
