Condition Rating

Built in 1952, this duplex has received updates, but they appear to be functional rather than recent, comprehensive renovations. The kitchen, while featuring a stainless steel sink and updated appliances, displays painted white cabinetry, laminate countertops, a mosaic tile backsplash, and a ceiling fan light fixture that are stylistically dated, likely from a renovation 15-30 years ago. The presence of a window AC unit in the kitchen suggests a lack of central cooling, indicating older or less modern systems. While the property is maintained and move-in ready, key areas like the kitchen and potentially the bathrooms show signs of being outdated and would benefit from cosmetic updates to meet current quality standards.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Great Schools: Elementary School: Naples Elementary School (10/10).
Unbeatable Beachfront Location: Situated 'steps from the sand' and 'right across Ocean Avenue' in the highly desirable Belmont Shore, offering unparalleled access to the beach and coastal lifestyle.
Strong Income Potential: As a duplex with one unit currently available for lease at $3,500/month, this property offers immediate and significant rental income, making it an attractive investment.
Panoramic Ocean Views: Both units boast direct ocean views, significantly enhancing their appeal, rental value, and overall property desirability.
Desirable Neighborhood & Accessibility: Located in Belmont Shore with easy access to 2nd Street's amenities, dining, and shopping, complemented by highly-rated nearby schools.
Charming Interior Features: Units include attractive elements such as fireplaces, hardwood flooring, and updated kitchen appliances, contributing to tenant appeal and comfort.

Cons

Limited Lot and Living Space: The property features a very small lot (1178 sqft) and a modest total living area (1320 sqft for two units), which may restrict outdoor living options and overall spaciousness.
Shared & Limited Amenities: The single-car garage and shared washer/dryer facilities for both units could present convenience challenges and potential conflicts for occupants.
Age of Construction: Built in 1952, the property's age suggests potential for ongoing maintenance or future capital expenditures for systems and structural components, despite some interior updates.
