Property Description
Discover an incredible investment opportunity that perfectly showcases its authentic 1950s charm. Ideally situated on a beautiful tree-lined street, this duplex offers a premier location within one of East Sacramento's most sought-after and vibrant pockets. Perfectly suited as a premier addition to a real estate portfolio or an ideal "house-hack" for a first-time investor, this property allows for the versatile option of living in one unit while renting out the other. The residence consists of a 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom unit and a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom unit featuring a cozy gas fireplace, both designed with efficient and comfortable floor plans. Interior highlights include timeless hardwood floors throughout the living areas, complemented by beautiful mid-century modern tiled counters, and the convenience of separate laundry areas in each unit. Beyond the interiors, the property offers exceptional utility with two detached garages providing secure parking or storage, supplemented by additional off-street parking on two separate driveways. Outdoor living is equally considered, with each unit enjoying a private, fenced, and gated backyard space perfect for small pets with direct access to the garages. The property boasts beautiful curb appeal highlighted by lush foliage and mature trees, supported by recent capital improvements including a complete roof and gutter replacement in 2017, full replacement of sewer lines in the crawlspace (M St. unit) in 2024, and now a clean section 1. Ideally situated for a "walk, roll, and stroll" lifestyle, this location is just moments away from Sacramento State, Trader Joe's, and elite dining options like the Michelin-recognized Allora. Residents are surrounded by amazing green spaces and the American River, making it a haven for outdoor enthusiasts. For commuters, the property is a dream, offering nearby proximity to US-50 and the University light rail station at 65th Street. This East Sacramento gem offers a rare chance to own a multi-family asset perfect as a high-demand rental or a charming home with built-in income potential where the blend of character, versatility, and ideal location provides potential for enduring long-term value.
