Property Description
PRICE ENHANCEMENT!! Located in the heart of Magnolia Park, this exceptional duplex offers a rare opportunity to own an upgraded income property inone of Burbank's most desirable neighborhoods.
Each unit spans approximately 800 square feet and features hardwood floors, open-concept living and dining areas, and generously sized bedrooms. Thoughtful upgrades throughout enhance both comfort and long-term value, making this property attractive to both owner-users and investors seeking stable rental income in a high-demand market.
The exterior spaces are equally impressive. Professionally landscaped with drought-tolerant, water-wise plantings, the grounds are designed for sustainability and low maintenance. Tenants (or an owner-occupant) will appreciate the outdoor patio with fireplace—ideal for entertaining or relaxing evenings at home.
A standout feature is the detached garage with ADU potential (buyer to verify). The structure is already complemented by an outdoor bathroom, laundry room, sauna, abundant storage, including a separate outdoor shed. This flexible configuration creates multiple value-add possibilities—additional rental income, guest quarters, or creative workspace.
For artists and content creators, the property includes a dedicated recording studio—an uncommon amenity that aligns perfectly with Burbank's creative culture.
Location is a major driver of value. Situated near the charming boutiques and cafés of Magnolia Park, the property is also close to Verdugo Park and Verdugo Aquatic Facility, Theodore Roosevelt Elementary School, and major production hubs including Warner Bros. Studios and The Walt Disney Studios. This proximity to the entertainment industry supports strong tenant demand and long-term appreciation potential.
Burbank itself offers a rare blend of small-town charm and economic strength. With its own police and fire departments, highly regarded schools, walkable neighborhoods, and vibrant local business community, it consistently ranks among the most sought-after cities in Los Angeles County. Residents enjoy a strong sense of community, convenient freeway access, and a dynamic employment base driven by media, technology, and creative industries.
This Magnolia Park duplex combines upgraded interiors, flexible outdoor amenities, income potential, and prime location—an exceptional investment in one of Southern California's most stable and desirable rental markets. Open Houses TBA.
