Rare opportunity to own a fully upgraded, income-producing duplex in the heart of Paso Robles, with two established short-term rental units and transferable short-term rental permits. Although not on tax record, the short term rental listings reflect a 2-bedroom/1-bath unit and a 1-bedroom/1-bath unit, both currently operating as successful short-term rentals with nearly 5-star guest ratings. The units are furnished, upgraded, guest-ready and already operating, allowing a new owner to step in and continue short-term rental operations from Day 1 rather than starting from scratch.
