About this home

We found 3 Cons,6 Pros. Rank: price - $1.30M(79th), sqft - 1128(7th), beds - 3(57th), baths - 2(50th).

SMART INVESTOR’S DREAM PROPERTY! This is an incredibly rare find: a legal duplex in the Wiseburn School District sitting on a huge lot and a half. The property also comes with plans that were approved for two additional ADUs—one 4 bed/2 bath and one 2 bed/2 bath giving you massive expansion potential. It’s currently operating as an Airbnb business, so you can take it over immediately, and smart investors will know the major potential for 2026 tax benefits. The home is turnkey with lots of upgrades throughout. This is a great opportunity for someone to pick up where the current seller left off and turn this into a well over $2 million dollar cash-producing machine.

Condition Rating
Good
Built in 1944, this duplex has undergone significant renovations, making it move-in ready with no immediate updates required. The kitchens feature stainless steel appliances, updated cabinetry (one with modern blue cabinets and subway tile, the other with well-maintained wood cabinets), and modern countertops. Bathrooms include updated vanities, mirrors, and light fixtures, though one bathroom retains older-style green tile in good condition, suggesting some elements are not brand new. Flooring consists of well-maintained hardwood and a concrete-like material. While extensively upgraded, some elements indicate it hasn't undergone a full, top-to-bottom renovation within the last 5 years to qualify as 'Excellent', but it is clearly well-maintained and functional.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Great Schools: Middle School: Richard Henry Dana Middle School (9/10).
Income-Generating Duplex: The property is a legal duplex currently operating as an Airbnb business, offering immediate cash flow and a proven income stream for investors.
Significant Expansion Potential: Approved plans for two additional ADUs (one 4 bed/2 bath and one 2 bed/2 bath) provide massive future income and value growth opportunities.
Desirable School District: Located within the highly-rated Wiseburn School District, enhancing its appeal to families and supporting long-term property value.
Turnkey Condition with Upgrades: The home is described as turnkey with lots of upgrades throughout, allowing for immediate operation and minimizing initial renovation costs for the buyer.
Large Lot Size: Sitting on a 'huge lot and a half' (7940 sqft), the property offers ample space crucial for the planned ADU expansion and potential outdoor amenities.

Cons

Age of Property: Built in 1944, the original structure is relatively old, which could lead to unforeseen maintenance issues or require updates to older systems not explicitly covered by 'upgrades'.
Limited Current Living Space: The existing 1128 sqft for a 3 bed/2 bath duplex might be considered compact for some tenants or future owner-occupants, especially prior to ADU expansion.
Development Complexity and Cost: While ADU plans are approved, the execution of construction will require significant capital investment, time, and project management, which could be a barrier or burden for some investors.
