Ventura, California 93003
This High-Potential Development Asset is listed at $1,339,000, with a $1,156,099 Fair Market Value. While the price is 15% above the automated estimate, the value is anchored in the Flexible R-3 Zoning and a massive 15,943 sqft Corner Lot. Holding a Condition Rating of 5, the interior requires a full-scale rehabilitation to transition from institutional to residential use. Located in the Ventura Unified district across from Ventura College, the site features a 17-car parking lot and immense multi-family redevelopment potential. This is a strategic play for Developers or Value-Add Investors.

Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1970, this 54-year-old property, while described as 'well maintained' externally, features an interior that is severely outdated and configured for commercial/institutional use, not residential. The kitchen is very basic and dated, and the bathrooms are commercial-style, requiring complete demolition and renovation for residential living. The commercial-grade carpeting and fluorescent lighting throughout are also unsuitable for a modern home. Despite the structural integrity, the property requires substantial rehabilitation and a full interior overhaul to meet current residential standards, making it very uncomfortable to live in its current state as a home.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 15943, living area = 3230.
The R-3 zoning allows for multi-family development and a wide range of permitted uses including commercial, childcare, and assisted living, offering exceptional investment versatility.
Positioned directly across from Ventura College and just 3 miles from the beach, providing high visibility, convenient access to amenities, and strong potential for various tenant bases or business operations. The corner lot further enhances its appeal.
Multiple price drops from the original $1.679M to the current $1.385M may indicate initial overpricing or market resistance, potentially affecting perceived value or future resale.
Constructed in 1970, the 54-year-old building, despite being well-maintained, may require ongoing capital expenditures for systems or aesthetic updates to remain competitive or to facilitate a change of use.
The property lacks specific scenic views (e.g., ocean, mountain), which could be a missed value-add opportunity in a desirable coastal market like Ventura.
