1936 – 1940 Dale St., San Diego, CA 92104 – Exceptional South Park Triplex with Income Upside and Development Potential. Rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully maintained three-unit income property in one of San Diego’s most desirable urban neighborhoods.
Located in the heart of South Park, just blocks from Balboa Park, this unique property offers a compelling combination of current cash flow, future rental upside, development potential, and the charm that makes South Park one of San Diego’s most sought-after communities. The property consists of three well-maintained 1-bedroom residential units in a tranquil garden-like setting.
Mature landscaping, abundant greenery, and private outdoor living spaces create an environment that feels more like a collection of individual homes than a traditional income property. Each residence enjoys its own private patio area, providing tenants with valuable outdoor space and enhanced privacy.
The units have been meticulously maintained, each with in-unit washer/dryers, dishwashers, tankless hot water heaters, and separately metered utilities paid directly by the tenants (owner currently pays water service only). The property currently generates approximately $103,000 in annual gross rental income, with estimated market rents supporting potential gross income of approximately $112,000 annually, offering investors potential upside opportunities.
Notably adding to the property’s appeal is a 400 sf detached two-car garage with ADU potential (currently not included for tenants’ use) with City-approved architectural plans for future use as an office/workspace.+6
