The property consists of a desirable mix of (1) 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom unit and (1) 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom unit. The 4-bedroom layout includes a legal 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom configuration plus (2) additional bonus bedrooms and one bonus bathroom, maximizing rental income potential. The property features approximately 1,800 square feet of legal living space, with converted garage space expanding the functional footprint to roughly 2,200 square feet. Parking can accommodate up to five vehicles, a significant amenity in the dense Isla Vista submarket. The upstairs unit also enjoys a large rooftop deck, providing valuable outdoor space highly sought after by student tenants. There is also a large, private backyard for tenant use. The property underwent comprehensive renovations in 2014, including a new roof, new gutters, full interior renovations, and exterior paint. Improvements were thoughtfully designed with student housing in mind, incorporating durable, easily replaceable finishes and low-maintenance upgrades built to withstand high-occupancy turnover. The current rents are approximately 25% below market, and the property can easily stabilize to a 5.7% CAP RATE once re-rented to new students for the '26/'27 school year. Opportunities to acquire a prime, coastal student rental in Isla Vista are exceptionally limited. With its premier location adjacent to UC Santa Barbara, strong pre-leasing history, flexible bedroom configuration, and durable renovations tailored to student accommodations, 6615 Sabado Tarde Road represents an extremely rare chance to own a high-demand rental property at one of California's top universities.
