Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1954, the property is currently functional and occupied but shows clear signs of age and dated finishes. While the listing mentions an updated kitchen, the photos reveal older oak-style cabinetry, laminate countertops, and white appliances from previous decades. The bathrooms feature dated tile and basic plastic inserts, and the units utilize older wall-mounted heating systems. The property is primarily marketed for its land value and development potential, reflecting that the existing structures, while maintained, require significant modernization to meet current market standards.
The property offers exceptional development upside with city approval for up to 20 units and a 55-foot height limit, allowing for a four-story structure with no setback requirements.
Situated on a prime corner lot close to the beach and shopping, the site provides potential for stunning ocean views from the upper floors and rooftop patio.
The property currently features two functional residential units and a separately rented garage, providing steady cash flow while the buyer navigates the development planning process.
