Property is move-in ready.
Originally built in 1976, the property has undergone extensive high-end renovations. The kitchen features premium Thermador and Dacor appliances, custom cabinetry, and stone counters, while the bathrooms are described as spa-inspired. Although the specific aesthetic of the kitchen renovation suggests it was likely completed 5-15 years ago, the property is in turnkey, well-maintained condition and is fully move-in ready.
The property boasts breathtaking white-water, Catalina Island, and coastline views from nearly every living space, providing a premium aesthetic that commands high market value.
As a luxury side-by-side duplex with separate two-car garages for each unit, this property offers rare flexibility for multi-generational living or high-end rental income in a coveted enclave.
Both units feature extensive modern updates, including cathedral ceilings, chef's kitchens with Thermador and Dacor appliances, and spa-inspired bathrooms, ensuring immediate move-in readiness.
The $4.295M price point represents a significant capital requirement that may result in lower cap rates for pure investors compared to less specialized residential income properties.
Built in 1976, the property may have underlying infrastructure or building systems that, despite cosmetic updates, require more maintenance than newer contemporary constructions.
