Description
VACANT MAY 1ST | 3BR FRONT HOME DELIVERED EMPTY. Rare opportunity for an owner-user or savvy "house-hacker" to move in immediately! This versatile corner-lot duplex is perfectly situated close to the heart of Downtown Alhambra, offering premier access to the city's vibrant dining, entertainment, and shopping district. The property features two distinct identities with private street addresses and independent utility meters (Gas/Electric): 318 Palmetto Dr (3BR/2BA - Vacant 5/1) and 808 S 4th St (1BR/1BA - MTM). Both residences have been well-maintained, featuring clean kitchens, updated countertops, and solid flooring throughout. DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL: Property carries the prestigious ALRPD* (Residential Planned Development) designation, supporting high-density upside. The detached 2-car garage is a premier candidate for a 2026-compliant ADU conversion, offering a clear path to a high-yield 3-unit compound. Whether you choose to live in the spacious front home while collecting rent from the rear, or hold as a pure high-density investment, the value is undeniable. Sold “As-Is”. Buyer to independently verify all zoning, permits, and development potential with the City of Alhambra. Please do not disturb tenants; showings reserved for pre-qualified buyers. Note: Hero image has been digitally enhanced for twilight lighting per AB 723; original daylight photo follows in media sequence.
