Remarks

OFFER DATE: Thursday, 2/5 at 1:00 PM Marcus & Millichap is pleased to present 813 Cowper Street, an eight-unit multifamily property located in the heart of Downtown Palo Alto. Built in 1956, the property consists of three well maintained buildings with a total of eight units, including five large one bedroom apartments and three two bedroom residences. The front duplex features a two bedroom unit and a one bedroom unit, offering a more residential feel compared to a typical apartment layout. In addition, the property includes a charming cottage style unit that provides added privacy and character. Each unit is equipped with an unit washer and dryer, an amenity that is both rare and highly desirable in this submarket, along with garage and carport parking. With single family home values in the 94301 ZIP code averaging approximately $5.3 million according to Zillow, the property offers investors a compelling opportunity to acquire durable income and long term downside protection in one of the most supply constrained markets in the country.
