Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property was built in 1956 (68 years old) and the listing lacks any mention of recent renovations to kitchens, bathrooms, or major systems (HVAC/Electric). While the exterior appears maintained and the units are functional for a triplex, the age and lack of updates suggest the property is dated and requires minor repairs and modernization to meet current market standards.
The property features a highly desirable triplex layout consisting of a detached 2-bedroom front house and two 1-bedroom rear units, offering excellent flexibility for owner-occupants or multi-tenant rental income.
Each of the three units includes its own private garage, a premium feature for multi-family housing in South Gate that significantly enhances tenant retention and property value.
Situated on a generous 8,223 square foot lot, the property provides ample space between units and potential for future value-add improvements or ADU considerations.
With a construction date of 1956, the property likely requires ongoing maintenance or capital improvements to modernize major systems and interior finishes to meet current market standards.
While the property is conveniently located near several schools, many of the local elementary and middle schools carry lower performance ratings, which may affect appeal for long-term family tenants.
The property boasts a nice unit mix of a 2 bed/1 bath house in the front, plus two 1 bed/1 bath units in the rear. Each unit has a garage.
No exterior & parking available.
