    What's special

    Exceptional triplex opportunity at 518 Santa Fe Ave, Compton, featuring three 1-bedroom, 1-bath units and approximately 1,200 square feet of living space offering versatility for both investors and owner-occupants seeking additional income potential. One of the units is a newly constructed ADU showcasing a bright, open-concept layout with contemporary finishes throughout, including shaker-style cabinetry, quartz countertops, luxury vinyl plank flooring, a beautifully tiled walk-in shower, a modern vanity, ceiling fans, mini-split heating and air conditioning, and abundant natural light. The ADU is currently vacant and awaiting final inspection and approval by the City of Compton. Upon completion of the approval process, it offers the opportunity for a new owner to lease the unit at current market rental rates and maximize income potential.

With quick access to nearby freeways, commuting throughout Los Angeles is simple while still enjoying the benefits of a well-established neighborhood.
