Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1908, this Craftsman triplex is well-maintained but features outdated interior finishes. The kitchen contains older tile countertops, mid-range wood cabinetry, and dated white appliances. The bathroom is functional but very basic with older fixtures. While the original hardwood floors are a significant asset and the property appears clean, the overall style and major systems reflect a lack of recent comprehensive renovation, consistent with the 'fair' criteria for properties showing signs of being outdated.
Situated in the heart of Downtown Riverside, this property is within walking distance to the historic Mission Inn, premier dining, and vibrant nightlife, ensuring consistently high rental demand.
The rare street-to-alley level parcel includes three garages and five off-street parking spaces, providing an abundance of parking that is highly coveted in a downtown setting.
Built in 1908, the triplex features timeless Craftsman details including glossy hardwood floors, a large shady porch, and a fireplace, contributing to its high tenant retention and aesthetic appeal.
Due to the property's 1908 construction, potential buyers should anticipate higher maintenance costs and the need for periodic updates to aging electrical, plumbing, and structural systems.
With two of the three units being one-bedroom layouts (including one loft), the property may have a more limited tenant pool compared to multi-family units with larger bedroom counts.
