This Historic Development Asset is a High-Potential Investment Opportunity listed at $725,000.

Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1901, this property is marketed primarily as a 'restoration project' or a 'development opportunity' for multi-family units. The kitchen and bathrooms are severely outdated, featuring old cabinetry and fixtures that do not meet modern standards. The exterior shows significant deferred maintenance with peeling paint and weathered surfaces, and the listing suggests the value lies in the land and potential for substantial rehabilitation or redevelopment.
Zoned WHR4 on a 7,000 sqft lot, the property offers a significant opportunity to develop multi-family residential units in accordance with City of Whittier and State guidelines.
Boasting a high walkability score, the property is situated in the heart of Uptown Whittier, steps away from Whittier College, premier dining, shopping, and nightlife.
Built in 1901, this home offers over a century of architectural character and historic ambiance, providing a unique foundation for a high-value restoration project.
Marketed as a 'project' or 'restoration,' the 120-year-old structure likely requires substantial capital investment to modernize systems and structural integrity.
At just 1,102 square feet, the current two-bedroom configuration is relatively small, which may necessitate a costly expansion to appeal to modern owner-occupants.
