Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1904 with moderate updates likely dating back 20+ years. While the kitchen features high-end Thermador appliances, the cabinetry and bathroom finishes (glass block and tile style) are dated. Hardwood floors in bedrooms show significant wear and scuffing, indicating a need for minor repairs and cosmetic updates to meet modern standards.
Situated in the trendy Mosswood/Temescal district, the property boasts an excellent Walk Score and exceptional proximity to MacArthur BART, major hospitals, and key commuter highways.
This Victorian-Craftsman duplex offers significant flexibility for use as a multi-unit investment or a single-family residence, complemented by a rare three-stall garage and a large level lot.
The home retains its 1904 charm with bay windows and built-ins while featuring a high-end kitchen update including a 36” Thermador professional range and marble countertops.
The interior features a mix of hardwood, carpet, and laminate flooring, which may require a unified update to meet the aesthetic expectations of contemporary buyers.
Built in 1904, the property likely requires the specialized maintenance and utility considerations typical of century-old homes, including limited access to the finished attic via a drop-down ladder.
