Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1958 and sold 'as-is,' this property is over 65 years old with no mention of recent renovations. The listing's emphasis on 'potential' and 'as-is' status, combined with the aged exterior and original-era infrastructure, suggests the need for a full rehab of kitchens, bathrooms, and major systems.
Featuring two separate buildings on a single lot with independent gas and electricity meters, this duplex offers a streamlined investment structure for portfolio growth.
Situated minutes from downtown Bakersfield and Bakersfield College with convenient alley access, the property is well-positioned to attract a steady pool of student and professional tenants.
With one unit currently vacant and the second soon to be, investors have the immediate opportunity to renovate and lease at current market rates without existing tenant constraints.
Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =6848, other record lot size in square feet = 6969.
The property is being sold in its current 'as-is' state, suggesting that buyers should budget for potential deferred maintenance or modernization costs typical of a 1950s build.
The assigned elementary and middle schools carry low performance ratings, which may limit the property's appeal to families and impact long-term residential demand.
