Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1962, this 62-year-old duplex is positioned as a 'value-add' investment opportunity. While currently functional and occupied by tenants, the age and lack of reported renovations suggest dated kitchens, baths, and systems that require updates to achieve the property's full valuation potential.
Elementary School: Newport Elementary School (9/10).
The property offers substantial upside through the potential construction of an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) and conversion to short-term rentals, with a projected valuation exceeding $6,000,000.
Situated just steps from the beach on the Balboa Peninsula, the property provides immediate access to world-class amenities, including Fashion Island, Pelican Hill, and Newport Harbor.
Built in 1962, the structure may require significant capital investment for modernization and repairs to compete with newer luxury developments in the area.
