Built in 1963, this triplex shows its age. While the bathroom has some updated fixtures like the vanity and toilet, the shower enclosure and some tiling appear dated. The kitchen features older light wood cabinets, speckled countertops, and older white appliances, indicating it has not been extensively renovated recently (likely 15-30+ years ago). The property appears functional and maintained for rental purposes, but significant aesthetic updates are needed to modernize the units and bring them to current standards.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Location & Accessibility: Perfectly situated in central Berkeley, offering excellent proximity to UC Berkeley, San Pablo Park, shops, restaurants, Berkeley Bowl, and Ashby BART station, making it highly desirable for residents and investors.
Strong Multifamily Investment Potential: A versatile triplex with 'incredible income potential' and 'upside potential for strong positive cash flow' and 'increased rental income', ideal for investors seeking robust returns.
Desirable In-Unit Amenities: All three units feature individual washer/dryers, a highly sought-after amenity that enhances tenant convenience and rentability.
Versatile Unit Configuration: The property includes a spacious 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom front house and two 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom units, catering to a diverse tenant pool and maximizing rental income potential.
Shared Outdoor Space & Storage: A spacious backyard with a common area and additional storage provides valuable shared amenities for tenants, enhancing the living experience.

Cons

Property Age & Potential for Updates: Built in 1963, the property may have outdated systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical) or require significant capital expenditures for modernization and deferred maintenance.
Lack of Dedicated Parking: The description does not mention dedicated off-street parking for three units, which could be a significant drawback for tenants in a dense urban area like Berkeley.
Shared Common Area Management: While a shared backyard is a positive, common areas can sometimes lead to tenant disputes or require more active management and maintenance from the landlord.
