About 270 Oakland Ave
270-272 Oakland Ave is a duplex in San Jose's Mayfair neighborhood with a new roof, new garage doors, new paint, and a layout that keeps the two households separate. Each unit is a 2 bedroom, 1 bath with its own attached garage, driveway parking, and separate gas and electric meters. The front unit (270) is delivered vacant and was just remodeled with a new kitchen, new bathroom, new flooring, and new water heater. The rear unit (272) comes with an excellent long-term tenant on a month-to-month lease generating $2,033 income per month. Mayfair is one of East San Jose's most established communities with deep cultural roots and the kind of neighbors who actually know each other. The Mexican Heritage Plaza anchors the corner of Alum Rock and King with a theater, gardens, arts school, and year-round events, including a big Dia de los Muertos celebration each fall. Some of the Bay Area's best taquerias and panaderias line Alum Rock Avenue, with everyday shopping minutes away at King and Story. Mayfair Park and its community center are close by with a public pool, skate park, playgrounds, a fitness center, preschool and teen programs, community garden, and neighborhood schools sit within a short walk or drive. The public Rancho del Pueblo golf course and Emma Prusch Farm Park's barnyard animals and gardens are just down the road. Getting around is easy too: quick access to 101, 280, and 680, a short drive to Berryessa BART, and a brand-new underground BART station now under construction just west of the neighborhood at 28th Street/Little Portugal as part of the Phase II extension through downtown San Jose. Move in, collect rent, and let the new roof, fresh remodel, and separate meters do the heavy lifting for years to come.
