About 1912 Barry Avenue
"Once in a blue moon" opportunity to acquire a seldomly seen and highly desired single level duplex on a jumbo 9,075 sq ft lot (62'x147' per assessor) enveloped by serene landscape and immediately adjacent (side + back) to some of Sawtelle Japantown's finest new construction townhomes! Lovingly owned by the same family since 1962 and expanded and renovated in the late '80s, each unit features spacious floorplans consisting of one VACANT 3 bedroom + 2 bath unit and one tenant occupied 2 bedroom + 1 bath unit. An abundance of avocados is produced by the towering tree out back while a 2-car detached garage offers excellent ADU potential. Although it's being sold "as-is" for land value only, discerning end users will enjoy the ability to customize and owner occupy one residence, and savvy developers should explore the LAR2 zoning coupled with TOC3 incentives to determine the highest and best use of this exceptional parcel nestled between Brentwood, Santa Monica, Westwood, and Mar Vista. Dare to compare. Please do not walk the property without an appointment or disturb the tenant since it is under 24-hour video surveillance.
