Description

Exceptional opportunity to own a thoughtfully upgraded and versatile duplex property, ideal for both investors and owner-users. Featuring two well-appointed units, this property combines strong income potential with high-quality improvements throughout. The primary unit, approximately 1,250 square feet, offers a spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bath layout and was significantly enhanced by a permitted 450-square-foot addition in 2016. This expansion created a generous primary suite, added a laundry closet, and enlarged the kitchen for modern functionality. The home showcases hardwood floors, quartz countertops, designer lighting from Rejuvenation, West Elm, and Room & Board, along with premium solid brass hardware from Rejuvenation and Baldwin. Dual-pane Milgard windows provide added efficiency and comfort. The home also enjoys exclusive access to a beautifully designed backyard featuring a 2019-built Balau wood deck and lush, private landscaping ideal for outdoor living. The second unit, approximately 800 square feet, is a charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath residence with a remodeled kitchen and updated finishes including Rejuvenation solid brass hardware and curated lighting. Dual-pane Milgard windows further enhance the space. Additional highlights include upgraded electrical panels for both units, a Tesla charger for convenient at-home EV charging, Ring security cameras for added peace of mind, and a smart B-hyve WiFi-controlled irrigation system servicing both the front and rear yards offering efficient, modern property management and strong curb appeal. This unit has been successfully operated as a fully furnished mid-term rental, offering immediate income potential. Both units will be delivered vacant, allowing the next owner to set market rents or occupy one or both units. With its blend of thoughtful upgrades, strong rental versatility, and inviting outdoor space, this property presents a rare opportunity in today's market.
