Description

A rare legacy opportunity in the heart of desirable Benicia, this unique two-residence offering presents exceptional flexibility just blocks from vibrant downtown and the scenic Carquinez Strait. More than simply a home, this property offers the chance to create a multigenerational compound, investment opportunity, or private retreat in one of the area's most charming coastal communities. Situated on a generous lot, the property features two distinct homes with separate addresses, each offering privacy and versatility. The front residence at 639 E 5th Street includes two bedrooms, one bathroom, and a detached garage. With an inviting footprint and classic character, the home presents an exciting opportunity for renovation, customization, or the creation of a personalized primary residence. Privately positioned at the rear, 480 E G Street is a charming one-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath cottage complete with its own attached garage. Ideal for extended family, guest accommodations, a private home office, or income-producing potential, the second residence adds exceptional flexibility to the property. The expansive lot invites endless possibilities, offering ample space for outdoor entertaining areas, gardens, or even the addition of a future pool, allowing the property to grow and evolve with your lifestyle. Ideally located just moments from Benicia's vibrant yet intimate downtown, residents enjoy boutique shopping, renowned dining, waterfront strolls, and year-round community events that capture the town's sought-after small-town charm. The nearby waterfront offers breathtaking sunset views and easy access to the Carquinez Strait. Opportunities offering dual residences, lifestyle flexibility, and long-term potential rarely come to market. A truly special property where one family's chapter concludes and another begins.
