About This Home

As of September 2022

Asking only $1.2MM in an area where duplexes average $1.35MM, South Berkeley’s 2816 Martin Luther King Jr Way is a property no investor should ignore. This is a generously sized duplex, with each unit occupying its own floor & offering an average of 1,000 sq.ft. of livable space. A massive backyard & sun-soaked deck greatly expand the perceived size of each unit, given Berkeley’s idyllic year-round climate. More importantly for prospective buyers, the large rear offers undeniable ADU potential, which will increase the value of this purchase long term. Of course, the real value here is in the property’s location—1.5 miles for UC Berkeley, minutes from downtown, three blocks from BART, and one block from Grove Park. The pedestrian-friendly nature of 2816 MLK Way, coupled with its easy access to the best Berkeley has to offer, makes this property very appealing. Its proximity to anything a tenant could want ensures the new owners will be able to secure top-tier rents with ease.
