Situated in the heart of Pasadena, CA, this 12-unit apartment building presents a value-add opportunity, for a patient investor, in one of the most sought-after locations in the city.

Built in 1960, this two-story walk-up building is being marketed for the first time in over 40 years. Comprising a mix of 4 one-bedroom/one-bathroom units and 8 two-bedroom/one-and-three-quarter-bathroom units, this property caters to a diverse range of tenants.

Two 75-gallon hot water heaters serve the building, ensuring ample hot water supply for residents.
