Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This 2,928-square-foot duplex was built in 1986 and contains two three-bedroom units with open living areas. The upper-level principal bedrooms capture the strongest ocean views, while decks, furnishings on the East side, and household appliances add practical features. The property has vinyl siding over wood-frame construction, a metal roof, heat-pump systems, public water, and septic service. Recent garage cleaning and painting have refreshed that area.

Set on 0.241 acres in a second-row position, the property is located across the street from beach access. The East unit is occupied on a month-to-month basis, while the West unit is vacant and ready for use. The duplex layout supports continued two-unit operation or an owner-occupancy arrangement with the other side rented. Seller-reported prior leakage in the principal bedroom and a bathroom area has been repaired, with no active leaks reported in either unit.

Key Highlights

  • 2,928‑square‑foot duplex on a 0.241‑acre lot
  • Both units include 3 bedrooms and open living areas
  • Ocean views are strongest from the upper‑level principal bedrooms
