The lot truly sets itself apart. A graded area at the top of the lot is already set up for a large RV or trailer, complete with water & electricity hookups. Below, a second graded area offers room to park additional vehicles, toys, or equipment. Just beyond that, a large flat open space has potential for a shop, a pool, or even an ADU. Multiple exterior seating areas let you take full advantage of the breeze, the views, & our beautiful San Diego weather. Inside, the home is move-in ready & thoughtfully updated: newer roof (2022), updated HVAC (2018), and solar installed in 2024 to help offset energy costs. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances & granite countertops. Natural light fills the home throughout. The downstairs bathroom has been fully remodeled. It should be noted that the fourth bedroom is a cozy size & is a flexible space perfectly suited for a home office, studio, or nursery. Beyond the finishes, this home offers something rare: a layout designed with the potential for a downstairs conversion that could separate the lower living area from the upstairs. Owners can enjoy the home exactly as it is today, or explore the opportunity for multi-generational living or additional cash flow down the road.
