2814 California St, Berkeley, CA 94703

Property Description

Located in South Berkeley just blocks from San Pablo Park, 2814 California Street offers an ideal owner-occupant setup with income support. This front-and-back duplex sits on a 3,300 sq ft lot and includes two townhouse-style units totaling 1,882 sq ft. The front unit (2BD/1BA) will be delivered vacant and is newly remodeled—perfect for owner-occupancy with bedrooms upstairs for added privacy. The rear unit (3BD/1.5BA) is tenant-occupied, generating $3,000/month—enough to cover most operating costs and offset mortgage payments. With separate gas, electric, and water meters, expense management is simple. Walk Score 83, Bike Score 92, and close to Ashby BART and key bus lines, this location is both commuter- and community-friendly. Two parking pads and shared laundry add further convenience. A rare opportunity to own in a central Berkeley location for under $1M while benefiting from strong rental income.
