Nestled in a quaint and quiet neighborhood in South Salinas, this gem of a duplex offers both owner-occupied buyers and investors true value. For owner-occupied buyers, live in the larger unit and rent out the other to offset your mortgage expense. For investors, there's great income upside AND the opportunity for a value-add "fixer-upper." Some elbow grease and TLC will go a long way! Tenants pay all utilities except for water and sewer. Individually metered for gas and electric. Front unit has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, rear unit has 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom. Both units have individual laundry hookups. Lots of upside in rental income. The property is centrally located in close proximity to schools, shopping, public transportation and parks.
