More Insights
Built in 1968 (57 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1968, this duplex has undergone significant and recent renovations, particularly in the kitchens and bathrooms of both units. The kitchens feature modern white shaker cabinets, stainless steel appliances, subway tile backsplashes, and recessed lighting. Bathrooms are updated with contemporary vanities, fixtures, and tile work. Flooring is a mix of clean carpet and newer LVP/wood-look. While the property's age suggests potential for older underlying systems, the visible living spaces are move-in ready with no immediate renovations required, aligning with the 'Good' condition criteria for properties extensively renovated within the last 5-15 years.

With a $5,050/month combined market rent potential ($60,600 annually), buyers can live affordably while offsetting a major portion of their mortgage. Investors will appreciate the stable tenant base, safe neighborhood and long-term appreciation potential. Separate outdoor spaces and separate garages enhance privacy and livability. This is a rare chance to own a versatile, income-producing property on a tree-lined street in one of Sacramento's most desirable communities.
