We are pleased to present 1142-1144 16th St, a very well located duplex in Santa Monica, CA. Situated just North of Wilshire Blvd, this primely located property is right next to the beautiful UCLA Santa Monica Medical Center.This duplex sits on a large 7,513 square foot lot with an alley behind where the tenants will nd convenience access to a 3-car garage and a back entrance to the property. Both units offer the tenants a private and separate outdoor area, giving each unit the feel of a single family house. The front house is a large 1,748 square foot, 3 Bed / 2 Bath unit with a private front yard. The back house is a large 945 square foot, 2 Bed / 1 Bath unit with a private backyard and back entrance to the unit. Also, the property’s exterior has been signicantly updated over the years with a recent new roof, electrical, and plumbing systems. This property offers a great owner-occupy and/or a great value add opportunity. Both of the units are currently occupied and paying lower than market rents. We estimate over 35% upside in current rent potential. Furthermore, a very exciting and straight forward way to add value to this property would be to convert the existing 3-car garage into a 495sf 1-bedroom ADU.This ADU conversion is estimated to cost between $150,000 – $175,000 ($300/sf – $350/sf) for all construction costs, which is signicantly less than the value that the ADU will create. To demonstrate the ADU’s nished value, recent sale comparables of nearby triplexes in Santa Monica are selling for an average of $1,000 per SqFt. This suggested the ADU would be worth around $495,000 in value, giving the buyer a $320,000+ net prot value-add opportunity.To summarize, the Buyer can own a primely located triplex in Santa Monica for under $3,000,000 after buying the current duplex and adding the ADU. Reach out to the listing agents for a nancial summary of what the buyer’s total costs and returns would look like after nishing the ADU conversion.This property at 1142 16th St, Santa Monica, is perfect for families, located in a highly sought-after area renowned for its excellent schools.
