Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1963, this property shows typical signs of age for a 60-year-old home that has been maintained but not extensively renovated. Exterior images reveal older aluminum window frames, window-mounted AC units, and weathered concrete/stucco, indicating that major systems and interior finishes (kitchens/bathrooms) are likely functional but outdated. The listing's focus on it being an 'investment opportunity' further suggests it is a candidate for cosmetic updates rather than being in move-in ready 'good' condition.
The property features two detached homes (3BD/2BA and 2BD/1BA) on a single lot, providing an excellent opportunity for house-hacking or generating dual rental income streams.
Both residences are equipped with separate gas and electric meters and individual laundry hookups, which simplifies property management and reduces owner-paid utility expenses.
