Property Description

Seller may consider carrying a 1st TD at 5.5%-6% interest only, no prepayment penalty for 5 years, with 30%+ down for qualified buyers. 631 Pier Ave presents a rare opportunity to acquire a thoughtfully maintained split-level four-unit property in the heart of Santa Monica's coveted Ocean Park neighborhood. The property features an attractive unit mix of two 2-bedroom units, one 1-bedroom unit, and one studio unit, currently generating approximately $201,000 in annual gross income while offering additional upside through future rental growth. Originally built in 1961 and carefully improved over the years, the property includes mini split A/C systems throughout all units, updated decking, refreshed interiors, new flooring, upgraded finishes, and the rare convenience of four private garages with additional off-street parking, an increasingly hard-to-find amenity in Santa Monica's coastal neighborhoods. Several units feature abundant natural light, open layouts, private outdoor spaces, and seamless indoor-outdoor living, while the split-level design adds architectural character and a unique sense of separation and flow throughout the property. Beyond the investment fundamentals, the property offers a uniquely serene atmosphere framed by mature landscaping cultivated over decades of ownership, including towering palm trees, lush podocarpus greenery, vibrant bougainvillea, mature fig vines, and a beautiful pomegranate tree woven throughout the hillside gardens. Tucked behind greenery and moments from Main Street, Rose Avenue, Abbot Kinney, Lincoln Blvd, and the beach, 631 Pier Ave offers a rare blend of stable income, lifestyle appeal, and long-term appreciation potential in one of Los Angeles' most desirable rental markets. Subject to Santa Monica rent control, the property offers stable in-place tenancy. Seller may consider carrying a first trust deed for qualified buyers, creating a rare financing opportunity in today's market.
