Positioned on the iconic Del Playa corridor in Goleta, 6516 Del Playa presents a rare two-unit investment opportunity featuring a 3BD/2BA main residence and a 3BD/3BA ADU -- both fully leased through the 26/27 academic year. The property generates 17,000/month in combined rental income with an NOI stepping from 130,663 to 141,073 year-over-year. The 26/27 leases are already in place, providing immediate cash flow certainty and a clear path to a 6.07 cap rate. With limited inventory and perpetual student housing demand driven by UCSB, this asset offers investors a compelling blend of current income and long-term appreciation in one of Santa Barbara County's most sought-after rental markets. *SF is Est.
