Property is moderate renovation needed.
Originally built in 1910, the property has undergone various updates that appear to be 20+ years old. While functional and currently leased, the kitchens and bathrooms feature dated tile countertops, older cabinetry, and mixed laminate flooring. The presence of window AC units suggests a lack of modern central HVAC, and the overall aesthetic requires cosmetic modernization to meet current market standards.
The property features three separate residences on a single parcel, providing exceptional flexibility for high-yield rental income, multigenerational living, or an owner-occupant looking to offset their mortgage.
Situated just steps from downtown San Luis Obispo’s premier restaurants, shops, and amenities, the property ensures high tenant demand and long-term appreciation in a highly walkable area.
With the two detached units currently leased below market value, there is a significant opportunity for an investor to increase the capitalization rate and realize immediate growth in monthly cash flow.
Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 2358, other record living area = 1094. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 5, other record bedroom count = 2.
The presence of only one water meter and two gas meters for three separate units complicates utility billing and may result in higher non-reimbursable overhead costs for the owner.
Originally built in 1910, the property may require more frequent maintenance and potential capital expenditures for aging structural or mechanical systems despite recent cosmetic updates.
