Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This property is a four-unit, townhouse-style quadplex containing four 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath apartments. The units are arranged on a level lot and feature individual laundry rooms, along with a private fenced-in backyard area for each apartment. Parking is set up for convenience with ample off-street spaces, including two spaces per unit: one carport space and one open space. The building was constructed in 1979 and is described as well cared for, with wood-frame two-story construction on a concrete perimeter foundation and a composition roof.

The quadplex is located on the far west side of the downtown Novato area, positioned near downtown but not immediately within it. The property shares an easement driveway with the building next door, which is also available for sale.

For operators and buyers seeking a small residential income asset, the mix of townhouse layouts, in-unit laundry, and enclosed private yard space may appeal to tenants looking for more functional everyday space than a typical apartment. The configuration also supports straightforward day-to-day management, with each unit receiving defined parking and private outdoor space, all within a maintained, wood-frame two-story building.

Key Highlights

  • Four townhouse apartments (2BR/1.5 BA each) on a level lot near downtown Novato
  • Each unit includes an individual laundry room and a private fenced backyard area
  • Ample off‑street parking: each apartment has two spaces (1 carport, 1 open)
