All components appear new or virtually new, meeting current quality standards with no deferred maintenance visible.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Great Schools: Elementary School: Ivanhoe Elementary School (9/10).
Exceptional Income Potential & Flexibility: This duplex, featuring two residential homes (2 bed/2 bath and 1 bed/1 bath) plus a guest quarters, offers significant rental income opportunities, estimated at $8600+ for the main units. Both primary residences are delivered vacant, providing immediate income generation or owner-occupancy flexibility, ideal for investors or multi-generational living.
Prime Silver Lake Location: Situated in a highly desirable and vibrant Eastside enclave of Los Angeles, the property benefits from its proximity to popular landmarks like Echo Park Lake, Sunset Junction, and the Silver Lake Reservoir, along with trendy local establishments. This ensures strong tenant demand and potential for continued property value appreciation.
Versatile Guest Quarters with ADU Potential: The approximately 400 sq ft guest quarters, with its separate entrance and flexible layout, presents an excellent opportunity for conversion into an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), a creative studio, home office, or an additional source of rental income, significantly enhancing the property's overall value and utility.
Modernized & Well-Equipped Units: The front residence boasts a 'sleek, modern design' with an open-concept living area, sun room, island kitchen, and included appliances (refrigerator, 6 burner stove, dishwasher, washer/dryer). The rear unit also comes with appliances and a laundry room, making both units attractive and move-in ready for tenants or owner-occupants.
Strong Historical Appreciation: The property has demonstrated significant value appreciation over recent years, with sales history showing a rise from $600,000 in 2020 to $1,255,000 in 2022, indicating a robust market and strong investment potential in this location.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1931, other record living area = 1819.
Age of Property: Built in 1920, the property is over a century old. While described as modern, older constructions can entail higher ongoing maintenance costs, potential for unforeseen structural or system issues (plumbing, electrical), and may require more frequent upkeep compared to newer builds.
Limited Parking for Multiple Units: The description mentions a carport/driveway for up to 2 cars for the front unit, but does not specify dedicated parking for the rear unit or guest quarters. In a dense urban area like Silver Lake, limited or street-only parking for multiple units could be a significant inconvenience for residents and tenants.
Potential for Noise and Privacy Concerns: As a duplex with an additional guest quarters on a single lot, there is an inherent potential for increased noise transfer between units and reduced individual privacy compared to a standalone single-family home, which might not appeal to all prospective owner-occupants or tenants.
