Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1936, this 88-year-old property is explicitly marketed as a 'value-add' opportunity and a 'blank canvas' for renovation. The description indicates that residential units require a modern renovation program to bridge the gap to market rents, implying that kitchens, bathrooms, and systems are significantly dated or at the end of their functional life.
The mixed-use configuration of a retail storefront and two residential houses provides a versatile investment that mitigates market volatility through multiple revenue sources.
Situated on a high-traffic commercial artery with rare gated on-site parking, the property offers exceptional exposure for the retail component and a significant competitive advantage for residential tenant retention.
The investment features an efficient expense structure where tenants pay for all utilities, including water and trash, significantly reducing the owner's management responsibilities and maximizing Net Operating Income.
