What's special

Fresh interior paint throughout

Rare opportunity to own a duplex in the heart of Old Southwest Reno on the iconic California Avenue corridor. Multi-family properties in this neighborhood almost never come available for sale, with no duplexes sold in this immediate area for many years. Situated just blocks from The Brewers Cabinet, the Truckee River, Downtown, and Midtown, this location offers premier walkability and high rental appeal. The property has been maintained to be move-in ready and features fresh interior paint throughout. The main house includes its own separate front and back yard, providing a traditional residential feel. The rear unit includes a private fenced patio, offering excellent separation and privacy between the two dwellings. This is an ideal setup for an owner-occupant or an investor looking to secure a high-demand asset in Reno's most established zip code. With no recent comparable duplex sales nearby, this represents a standout chance to own in a high-barrier-to-entry market.
