Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property is an older structure (built 1959 per description, 1899 per records) showing visible exterior wear, dated siding, and cracked pavement. While the units feature modern split HVAC systems and the description claims 'beautifully designed' interiors, the overall age and exterior condition indicate the property is dated and likely requires minor repairs or cosmetic updates to the building envelope.
The property is exceptionally well-positioned within walking distance to PayPal Park, Coleman Landing, and a future BART station, ensuring high tenant demand and long-term appreciation.
Each of the three units is equipped with individual split heating and air conditioning systems, a premium feature that enhances tenant comfort and reduces utility disputes.
As a triplex located near Downtown San Jose and San Jose Mineta International Airport, the property offers a robust income-generating opportunity in a high-growth employment hub.
With a total building size of 1,500 square feet across three units, the average living space per unit is approximately 500 square feet, which may limit the tenant pool to single occupants.
Originally constructed in 1959 (with records indicating 1899), the property's age suggests potential requirements for ongoing maintenance and capital expenditures for older structural systems.
