Rare 34-Unit Courtyard Community in Northridge - Pool, Private Courtyard & Exceptional Value-Add Potential This charming 34-unit apartment community is ideally located in the heart of Northridge, one of the San Fernando Valley's most desirable rental markets. Built around a beautifully landscaped central courtyard with a sparkling pool, the property combines strong curb appeal with meaningful value-add opportunities. Featuring a well-balanced unit mix of studios, one- and two-bedroom layouts (plus select larger units), the community appeals to a wide tenant base of students, young professionals, and small families-ensuring consistent occupancy and stable cash flow. The central pool and recreation area serve as a vibrant focal point, enhancing resident satisfaction and rental demand. With solid fundamentals and classic construction, the property is ideally positioned for modernization. Upgrading interiors-kitchens, baths, flooring, lighting, and fixtures-offers a clear path to higher rents and improved asset value. Additional upside can be realized through utility re-billing or RUBS implementation, operational efficiencies, and amenity enhancements such as refreshed outdoor furniture, lighting, and BBQ/lounge zones. Investor appeal is further strengthened by on-site laundry, storage, and ample surface parking, as well as proximity to CSU Northridge, major employment centers, and retail corridors. Northridge's strong rental demand and limited new supply create a compelling opportunity for both cash flow and appreciation with modest capital investment. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a well-maintained 34-unit property in a prime Northridge location with significant upside potential through strategic renovations and management improvements.
