Condition Rating
Fair

Built in 1928, the property shows signs of regular upkeep and some cosmetic updates, making it move-in ready. However, the kitchens feature a mix of newer cabinets/backsplash with older white appliances and dated light fixtures. Flooring is inconsistent, with some areas having wood-look laminate and others older tile or dark, less appealing surfaces. The overall aesthetic is functional but not modern, indicating updates likely occurred 15-30 years ago or were piecemeal, rather than a comprehensive recent renovation. No bathroom images were provided to assess their condition.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Coastal Location: Situated just blocks from the beach in a highly desirable Ventura neighborhood, offering excellent walkability to parks, cafes, and downtown.
Versatile Income Potential: Unique property featuring a duplex plus an additional bonus suite (three units total), providing significant rental income opportunities or multi-generational living flexibility.
Vacant Delivery: All units will be delivered vacant, allowing for immediate owner occupancy or seamless tenant placement without existing lease obligations.
Charming Architectural Style: Showcases classic Spanish architectural details such as arched doorways, textured stucco, and tile roofing, enhancing its character and curb appeal.
Flexible Living Arrangements: The distinct units (3-bed, 2-bed, and bonus studio) cater to diverse needs, ideal for guesthouse, home office, or various rental strategies.

Cons

Age of Construction: Built in 1928, the property may require ongoing maintenance, system updates (e.g., plumbing, electrical), or renovations typical of homes of this vintage.
Compact Unit Sizes: With 1111 total square feet divided among three units (5 beds/3 baths total), individual living spaces are likely compact, which may not appeal to all buyers or tenants seeking spaciousness.
Limited Bathroom Count: The overall bathroom-to-bedroom ratio (3 bathrooms for 5 bedrooms across three units) suggests that the main units may have only one bathroom each, which can be inconvenient for multiple occupants.
