Property is move-in ready.
While originally built in 1927, the property has undergone significant renovations that make it move-in ready.

This 1920s stately brick duplex features rare arched porches, original hardwood floors, coved ceilings, and craftsman built-ins, offering significant curb appeal and timeless character that appeals to vintage home enthusiasts.
Unit 1 has been thoughtfully updated with sleek black granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and designer lighting, blending contemporary convenience with period-style aesthetics for immediate rental or occupancy.
The property includes private fenced yards for both units and a partially finished basement with potential for an office or master suite, providing rare flexibility and privacy for a multi-family residence.
With a total of 1,087 square feet split between two units and four bedrooms, the individual living areas are notably compact, which may limit the tenant pool or comfort for larger households.
Built in 1927, the property may require ongoing attention to aging infrastructure and systems typical of century-old brick structures, potentially leading to higher long-term maintenance costs.
Step beneath the dappled light of old sycamores and into a piece of Sacramento's architectural history. This stately 1920's brick duplex features two updated residences. Unit 1 was updated previous to current tenant. From the street, arched porches welcome you like a vintage postcard-each entrance offering privacy, and personality. Inside, original hardwood floors glow with age and grace, leading to living rooms framed by classic coved ceilings and stunning brick fireplaces. New designer lighting in unit 1 casts a soft glow. The kitchen in unit 1 has newer crisp white cabinetry, sleek black granite counters, stainless steel appliances, and period-style bead board ceilings. Archways lead to cozy dining areas and hallways lined with statement fixtures-industrial black sconces and warm, minimal pendants that echo the home's craftsman roots. The dining rooms feature original craftsman built in cabinets. Updated bathrooms features charming black-and-white tile floors and pedestal sinks. Thoughtful upgrades blend seamlessly with the original layout and design. Out back, unit 1 enjoys a large private fenced yard while unit 2 has a small, private yard.
