More Insights
Built in 1963 (62 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1963, this duplex has undergone significant and recent renovations, making it move-in ready. The upper unit features a modern kitchen with white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances, along with a contemporary bathroom with subway tile and a dual vanity. The lower unit also presents updated kitchens and bathrooms, though with a slightly different, perhaps earlier, modern aesthetic (e.g., darker cabinets, granite countertops, and a different tile style). Updated flooring (laminate and tile) is present throughout. While the age of the property suggests potential for older underlying systems, the visible components are well-maintained and updated, aligning with the 'Good' condition criteria for properties extensively renovated within the last 5-15 years.

Pros & Cons
Pros

Exceptional Income Potential: A rare short-term rental permit provides a unique opportunity for significant income generation through vacation rentals, enhancing its investment appeal.
Versatile Duplex Configuration: The property features two distinct units (2-bed/1-bath and 4-bed/2-bath), making it ideal for multi-generational living, owner-occupancy with rental income, or full investment.
Ocean Proximity & Views: Offers a 'peek-a-boo view of the ocean' and expansive patios for enjoying ocean breezes and sunset views, adding to its desirability.
Ample Parking: Includes a 2-car garage plus 1 covered parking space, a significant advantage in a high-demand beach community where parking is often scarce.
Cons
Age of Property & Potential for Updates: Built in 1963, the property may have original systems and finishes that require significant investment to modernize and meet current luxury standards, impacting immediate move-in readiness or rental appeal.
Limited Ocean View: The description specifies a 'peek-a-boo view of the ocean,' indicating a partial or obstructed view rather than a full, expansive oceanfront vista, which could be a consideration for buyers at this price point.
Small Lot Size: With a lot size of 3049 sqft, outdoor space may be limited, potentially restricting expansion possibilities or desired amenities for a duplex in a high-demand area.
