About this home

Opportunity to own a fully-remodeled mixed-use 3,930 square foot property in the heart of Bakersfield that is listed for over $100 per square foot less than other properties in the same 93305 zip code ($127 price per square feet for 1825 Baker compared to the properties in the same zip code at $235 price per square feet, according to Realtor.com for September 2025). The added dual-income potential and seller willingness to provide owner financing, makes this property a truly one-of-a-kind and a must-see. Located in a desirable neighborhood along with other mixed-used properties, this property is zoned C-1 Neighborhood Commercial. That means this property can be used as a fully commercial property OR a combined residential/commercial space, providing unmatched flexibility for investors, owner-users, or business operators seeking a live/work opportunity. This zoning allows the property to be used as a rest home, convalescent home, adult care facility, or residential care facility as defined in California Health and Safety Code Section 1502. The property spans approximately 3,930 square feet of building area on a 6,773 square foot lot and has been completely remodeled, including four spacious bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms and a separated (but attached) section with its own private bathroom. The property features a new roof, new heating unit and water heaters, new flooring throughout, fresh paint, remodeled bathrooms, stone countertops, new cabinets, brand-new appliances, updated fixtures; as well as restored electrical and plumbing systems to help provide long-term reliability. Exterior improvements include fresh paint, tree trimming, new security gates, an alarm system, and new exterior doors. With alley access and five private rear parking spaces, the property offers both convenience and functionality. Located near a park, elementary school, and church, and with easy access to Highway 178, this property is ideally situated. With the opportunity to live on-site while generating rental income, or to lease both spaces for multiple streams of revenue, the property provides versatility and financial strength.

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =6726, other record lot size in square feet = 6534.
Low-Rated Local Schools: Several nearby elementary and middle schools have low ratings, which could be a deterrent for families considering the residential aspect of the mixed-use property.
Property Type Misclassification: Despite its strong mixed-use and commercial potential, the property is listed as 'Residential' and 'Single Family Residence,' potentially limiting its visibility to commercial investors.
Age of Original Structure: While extensively remodeled, the property's original construction year of 1922 might still raise concerns for some buyers regarding the underlying structural integrity or long-term maintenance, despite updated systems.
