Property is move-in ready.
The property is a well-maintained duplex that is move-in ready. Unit A has been remodeled with clean tile flooring, recessed lighting, and a functional kitchen. While the kitchen features (oak-style cabinets, tile countertops, and white appliances) and the carpeted stairs show some stylistic age, the overall condition is high with no immediate renovations required. The exterior is charming and well-kept with a classic white picket fence and mature landscaping.
Situated just moments from the heart of Solvang, this property offers unparalleled walkability to world-class shops, restaurants, and tasting rooms, making it highly desirable for residents and tenants alike.
The duplex configuration provides multiple financial strategies, allowing an owner to live in one unit while generating income from the other, or managing both as high-demand rental units.
Rare for downtown properties, each unit includes its own 2-car garage plus additional off-street parking, addressing a common pain point in high-density tourist areas.
While Unit A is beautifully remodeled, the description suggests Unit B may not share the same level of updates, potentially requiring immediate capital improvement to equalize rental value.
With two units and multiple garages occupying a standard residential lot, there is minimal private yard space, which may be a drawback for buyers seeking traditional single-family seclusion.
So many possibilities await with this charming downtown Solvang duplex! Ideally located just moments from the heart of town, this versatile property offers the perfect opportunity to live, invest, or both. Unit A is a beautifully remodeled 2-bedroom, 2-bath home featuring a dedicated office space, a classic white picket fence, and easy access to downtown shops, restaurants, and tasting rooms. Unit B offers 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, and a private balcony with lovely views--an inviting space to relax and unwind. Both units include their own 2-car garages plus additional off-street parking, providing convenience and flexibility.
