About This Home

Prime Peninsula investment just minutes from the vibrant downtown Mountain View! This well-positioned 4-plex offers 3,472 sq ft of living space on an expansive lot. Each of the four units features 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and dedicated parking with both covered and open spaces. All units are currently rented. The property has seen extensive permitted capital improvements to ensure long-term durability and efficiency. Upgrades include a 400-amp electrical main, commercial-grade copper plumbing, ABS sewer lines, tankless electric water heaters, and an updated driveway. Three of the units have been comprehensively remodeled with new HVAC systems, updated wiring, and modern kitchen and bath finishes. Investors can also capture additional revenue by reactivating the on-site coin-operated laundry. Strategically located near global tech giants like Google, LinkedIn, Microsoft, and Amazon, and offering effortless access to Highways 82, 85, 237, and 101, this is a cornerstone Peninsula asset with significant upside potential.
