383 West Wilson Street is a 12-unit multifamily investment property located in Costa Mesa, California. Situated on approximately 0.43 acres, the property features a unit mix of 10 one-bedroom units and 2 two-bedroom units and combines a substantially renovated existing asset with significant additional unit development potential. Central to the investment opportunity is the approval to convert existing garage space into 5 studio Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs), totaling approximately 2,045 square feet.

Importantly, this development upside is paired with substantial improvements to the existing 12 units. All units have been renovated with upgrades including quartz countertops, updated appliances and bathrooms, fresh paint, and vinyl and carpet flooring. With the existing interiors already improved, future investment can be focused on completion of the approved ADUs rather than a property-wide interior renovation program. 383 West Wilson Street also benefits from a sizable site and an attractive collection of resident amenities. The property provides 22 parking spaces, including 13 garage and 9 surface spaces, along with gated access, an on-site laundry facility, security doors, and a spacious central courtyard.
