261 Western Ave

Ideally situated just moments from the shopping, dining, and entertainment of downtown Livermore, this move-in-ready duplex presents a rare opportunity for first-time buyers and savvy investors alike. Offering exceptional flexibility, both units can be delivered vacant, allowing a buyer to settle into one side while the other is positioned to capture full market rent, or to lease both immediately upon closing. Each unit is separately metered, keeping utilities simple and streamlined. Recent updates on the exterior include newer exterior paint and low-maintenance landscaping that offers easy care throughout the year. The 263 unit has been thoughtfully refreshed with a remodeled kitchen and remodeled bathrooms, and the property is complete with all-new appliances, including kitchen appliances and a washer and dryer. Outdoor living is abundant on both sides, with 261 enjoying a generous wraparound yard and 263 showcasing a large enclosed patio, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Practicalities are readily addressed with the former carport now fully enclosed with a garage door, transforming it into a secure garage, plus an electric vehicle charger already wired. Peace of mind comes standard with a long list of recent improvements, including a newer roof, newer attic insulation, a newer water heater, newer AC, and a newer water main. Conveniently located near public transportation and everyday essentials such as Trader Joe's, this property places the very best of Livermore living right at your doorstep. Truly a versatile opportunity to live, invest, or both in the heart of Livermore!
