Condition Rating
Good
Built in 1925, this duplex has undergone a significant and recent interior renovation, making it move-in ready. Both units feature modern kitchens with new white shaker cabinets, quartz-like countertops, stainless steel appliances, and recessed lighting. The bathrooms are also fully updated with contemporary vanities, fixtures, and stylish tile. New light-colored laminate/LVP flooring and fresh paint are present throughout most of the living spaces. While the original fireplaces and older windows remain, the extensive updates to the most critical areas (kitchens, bathrooms, flooring) are high quality and appear to be within the last 5-15 years, aligning with a 'Good' condition score.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Location: Situated in the highly desirable NOBE neighborhood, offering strong rental potential and convenient access to BART, Temescal, and Emeryville.
Income-Generating Duplex: A dedicated residential income property with two 2BD/1BA units, separately metered for gas, electric, and water, ideal for investors or owner-occupants.
Modernized Interiors: Each unit features bright spaces and modern kitchens, enhancing tenant appeal and reducing immediate renovation needs.
Flexible Bonus Space: The upper unit includes a bonus room, providing valuable extra space perfect for a home office or additional living area.
Ample Parking & Low Maintenance: Offers garages and off-street parking, a significant advantage in urban areas, complemented by a low-maintenance backyard.
Cons
Age of Property: Built in 1925, the property may require ongoing maintenance for older systems and infrastructure, despite modern kitchen updates.
Limited Outdoor Space: The 3800 sqft lot size, while low-maintenance, suggests limited private outdoor space for two separate units, which may not appeal to all prospective tenants or owners.
Price Reduction History: Multiple price reductions from the original list price could indicate initial overpricing or market resistance, potentially signaling a need for competitive pricing to secure a buyer.
