Rare Assisted Living Facility For Conversion
Owner Financing. Deal Directly With The Flexible Owner.
Large Assisted Living Facility Opportunity
Buy Or Lease. You’re In The Driver’s Seat. Profit Sharing Option.
This offering represents a rare chance to acquire a substantial property in the outer San Francisco Bay Area. Discover converting the building into a licensed assisted living facility (ALF), residential care facility (RCF), or independent living community. The building’s current layout already includes a large number of subdivided bedroom size spaces, common areas, and service zones for dining areas, and activity spaces. This pre-existing configuration may help reduce remodel timelines and costs, compared to building entirely from the ground up, offering a potential advantage to experienced operators or investors seeking to establish or expand within the senior housing market.
While the facility will require a significant remodel before occupancy, its scale, location in a strong Northern California market, and partially adaptable layout combine to create a compelling project foundation. The buyer would be responsible for funding and executing the remodel, which may involve millions of dollars in construction costs. In exchange, the buyer may avoid or substantially reduce land acquisition expenses, since the property already includes the building and site improvements. The efficiency of converting existing infrastructure may appeal to operators who value speed-to-market and the ability to configure spaces to meet licensing and operational requirements.
Potential uses include assisted living, memory care, independent living, or hybrid senior housing models. Each of these categories has different licensing and staffing requirements in California. Target an aging population that values safe, comfortable housing with dining, social, and support services. The facility’s size—estimated at 40 to 70+ resident capacity depending on room configuration—allows for operational economies of scale that can improve service efficiency and revenue stability. Expansion room as well.
The outer Bay Area remains a favorable market for senior housing investment due to its combination of population density, aging demographics, and relatively high household incomes. In particular, Northern California continues to face supply shortages in assisted living beds relative to projected demand over the next decade. While any buyer must conduct independent feasibility and licensing studies, the market context supports the potential viability of a well-designed and properly operated facility.
The property’s existing footprint includes multiple areas that could be converted into private and semi-private rooms, communal dining areas, activity rooms, and administrative offices. There may be potential for specialty care wings, such as memory care or rehabilitation units, subject to licensing. The site configuration may also support outdoor spaces, and walks off site—features that enhance resident quality of life and marketability.
From an investment perspective, acquiring a large-scale property already configured with subdivided interior spaces can represent a strategic shortcut compared to purchasing raw land. Construction timelines for senior housing can be lengthy due to permitting, site work, and utility installation. In contrast, adapting an existing structure can, in some cases, allow an operator to begin occupancy sooner, subject to completion of remodel work and licensing requirements.
The property’s potential 40–70+ bed capacity positions it within the mid-to-large range for assisted living operations, offering the ability to serve a diverse resident population while benefiting from scale efficiencies. Larger facilities often enjoy greater resilience in occupancy fluctuations and can support a wider range of in-house services, from dining programs to activities and wellness offerings. There can be savings with the economy of scale compared to smaller facilities.
While the facility is not turnkey, the combination of building size, market demand, and adaptable layout creates a platform for a buyer with vision, resources, and operational expertise. A remodel project of this size is not without risk—construction costs, market shifts, and regulatory hurdles can all impact outcomes. However, for investors seeking entry or expansion in the Northern California senior housing sector, this property offers a unique foundation that may be more cost-effective and faster to bring online than comparable new builds.

Gov Licensing: California licensing categories include Residential Care Facility for the Elderly (RCFE) and, in some cases, other specialized care licenses. These categories define staffing ratios, service offerings, and safety standards. Buyers unfamiliar with California regulations should consult with experienced legal and operational advisors before committing to a purchase or remodel plan.
Disclosures: It is important to note that no guarantees are made regarding licensing approvals, remodel cost savings, or operational profitability. Interested parties must perform their own due diligence, including consultations with architects, contractors, and the local planning department. Initial feedback from certain planning officials suggests potential receptiveness to the conversion concept, but no assurances can be made regarding entitlements, timelines, profit margins, or conditions of approval. It’s an interesting speculative opportunity for the smart buyer investor. Naturally regulatory compliance and other details will remain the responsibility of the buyer.
