This fully renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom residence spans 1,521 sq ft and features a detached garage, a large backyard, and ample parking in both the front and rear of the property. The true value lies in the future: the sale includes city-approved permits to build three additional units totaling 2,591 sq ft, bringing the total potential living space to an impressive 4,112 sq ft. The approved plans include: Unit A – 1,091 sq ft, 3 bed/3 bath; Unit B – 1,086 sq ft, 3 bed/3 bath; and Unit C – 376 sq ft, studio with 1 bath. With alley access and favorable zoning, the groundwork is ready for a savvy investor or owner-user to bring this vision to life.

High Income Generation Opportunity: Pro forma rents for all four units are projected at approximately $12,900/month, presenting a rare opportunity for significant income potential for investors or owner-users.
Development-Ready with Approved Permits: The inclusion of city-approved permits and favorable zoning with alley access de-risks and accelerates the multi-unit development process, making it a turnkey investment for expansion.
Renovated Primary Residence: The existing 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom Spanish-style home is beautifully restored and fully renovated, offering immediate comfort and appeal.
Ample Parking and Large Lot: The property features a detached garage, ample parking in both the front and rear, and a generous 6,979 sq ft lot, enhancing utility and development flexibility.
Cons
Significant Price Discrepancy: The current list price of $899,000 is substantially higher than the estimated property value of $499,309.97, indicating a potential overpricing or a valuation gap not fully captured by standard models.
Substantial Additional Investment Required: While permits are approved, the construction of three additional units will necessitate significant capital outlay, project management, and time, which could be a barrier for some buyers.
Age of Original Structure: Built in 1942, the existing home, despite being renovated, may still present challenges associated with older infrastructure or require ongoing maintenance compared to newer constructions.
