Whether you are a seasoned investor, seeking a live-in opportunity, or looking for a short term rental option, this rare West Beach fourplex has endless options. Opportunities like this don't come twice!
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1956, this multi-unit property shows varying levels of maintenance. While one unit features a modern renovation (less than 5-10 years old) with quartz countertops and shaker cabinets, other units appear dated with older cabinetry, mismatched appliances, and aged flooring. The property is functional and move-in ready for tenants, but the overall age and inconsistent updates across all four units necessitate further modernization of interiors and likely older systems to reach a higher rating.
Situated in the highly coveted West Beach area, the property is just blocks from the ocean, Stearns Wharf, and the Funk Zone, ensuring premium desirability and high land value.
This four-unit property offers multiple revenue streams, including long-term rentals, potential short-term rental options, or a live-in investment opportunity in a high-demand market.
Residents are steps away from the vibrant energy of lower State Street and the heart of Santa Barbara’s coastal living, which guarantees enduring rental demand and low vacancy rates.
Built in 1956, the property may require significant capital expenditures for deferred maintenance or modernization of systems to achieve the 'limitless upside' mentioned.
At a $3.3 million list price, the initial capitalization rate may be compressed, requiring a sophisticated management strategy or further renovation to justify the investment yield.
