Mix-use building, 2 units upstairs, one bedroom each. Each unit upstairs has a bedroom, an area for an office, living room, kitchen, dining room and bathroom. There a laundry area outside the 2 units. Unit #3 is a grocery store and warehouse at the street level. This is great opportunity to live and work. Great location, just minutes to downtown Los Angeles, Highland Park, Pasadena, Dodgers Stadium, transportation, popular eateries and so much more. This is a great investment opportunity.

Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1907, this mixed-use property shows significant signs of age and deferred maintenance. The residential units feature very dated kitchens with old cabinets and tile, and basic, worn bathrooms with old fixtures. Flooring consists of old carpet and tile, and light fixtures are outdated ceiling fans and basic flush mounts. The exterior has peeling paint and appears neglected. While seemingly functional, the property requires substantial repairs and rehabilitation to major systems (electrical, plumbing, HVAC, roof) due to its extreme age, and the visible cosmetic elements are well beyond 'minor updates'.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Mixed-Use Versatility: The property's mixed-use designation (residential and commercial) offers unique flexibility for an owner-user to live and work, or for a diversified investment portfolio.
Multiple Income Streams: Comprising two residential units and a ground-floor commercial space (grocery store/warehouse), the property provides multiple distinct income-generating opportunities.
Strategic Location: Situated minutes from Downtown Los Angeles, Highland Park, Pasadena, and Dodgers Stadium, it boasts excellent connectivity and proximity to major urban centers, transportation, and amenities.
Strong Investment Potential: Explicitly highlighted as a 'great investment opportunity,' the property's multi-unit, mixed-use nature in a desirable LA location positions it well for capital appreciation and rental income.
Generous Lot Size: With an 8,360 sqft lot, there's potential for future expansion, additional parking, or redevelopment, adding long-term value (subject to zoning and permits).
Cons
Historic Age & Potential for Outdated Systems: Built in 1907, the property is likely to have original or significantly aged infrastructure (plumbing, electrical, HVAC), which may require substantial upgrades to meet modern standards and codes.
Significant Renovation/Capital Expenditure Likely: Given its age and lack of mentioned recent renovations, a new owner should anticipate considerable investment for deferred maintenance, modernization, and bringing units to competitive market standards.
Shared Residential Laundry: The residential units utilize an external, shared laundry area, which is less convenient than in-unit facilities and could be a minor detractor for potential tenants.
