Located in Tacoma’s Yakima neighborhood, this 4BD/2BA Victorian duplex presents a full rehabilitation opportunity for investors, builders, or buyers looking to create value from the ground up. The structure is currently in derelict condition and will require extensive repairs and updates throughout. The home shows significant deferred maintenance, with visible wear to the exterior siding, roofing, and windows. Inside, the property will need a complete overhaul, including flooring, walls, fixtures, and major systems such as electrical, plumbing, and HVAC. The condition suggests this is best suited for a cash purchase or renovation financing.
