Property is extensive renovation needed.
The property is currently mid-renovation and unlivable. While 'heavy lifting' like roofing and mechanical rough-ins are complete, it lacks finished kitchens and bathrooms, requiring significant rehab to reach a functional state.
Major structural and mechanical improvements, including re-roofing, new insulation, and mechanical rough-ins, have already been completed, significantly reducing the 'heavy lifting' for the next owner.
All ongoing work is backed by active, valid permits, ensuring the renovation meets city standards and providing a streamlined path to project completion for an investor or developer.
The property features a detached garage with potential for ADU conversion and a large lot, offering multiple streams of rental income once the duplex and additional unit are finalized.
The property is currently in a mid-renovation state and is not move-in ready, requiring a buyer with the liquid capital and construction expertise to manage the remaining project.
Being sold in 'as-is' condition places the full responsibility for completion costs and any potential defects on the buyer, which may also complicate traditional financing options.
Unlock the potential of this rare Pasadena duplex opportunity! Offered as-is and where-is in its current stage of renovation, this property presents an excellent investment for buyers looking to complete a permitted remodel and add value. The current owner has already completed a substantial portion of the major improvements, including: Mechanical rough-ins for the kitchens and bathrooms / Window retrofit / Replacement of original doors / Re-roofing / New insulation / Exterior and interior wall repairs / Siding improvements / Interior drywall installation. All work has been completed under active, valid permits, which remain in effect. While the renovation is not yet complete, the heavy lifting has already been done, allowing the next owner to finish the project according to their own vision and preferences. Once completed, this duplex offers excellent income-producing potential. The property features a spacious yard, ample on-site parking, and an unfinished detached garage that may provide the opportunity for a future ADU conversion (buyer to verify with the City of Pasadena), creating additional rental income potential. Whether you're an investor, developer, or owner-user seeking a value-add opportunity, this property offers a solid foundation in one of Pasadena's desirable neighborhoods with significant upside potential.
