A Rare Blend of Charm, Space, and Future Potential Just Minutes from Downtown. Why choose between a beautiful home now and room to grow later? This fully renovated 2-bedroom, 2-bath home offers both—modern comfort today, plus long-term possibilities for expansion with an ADU or even a lot split under California’s SB9. Set on a generous large lot with rare alley access, it gives you flexibility few homes in this price range can match. Step inside and you’ll find a bright, open layout with thoughtful upgrades throughout—fresh finishes, stylish bathrooms, and a kitchen that flows naturally into the main living space. It’s move-in ready, with nothing left to do but make it yours. Outside, the oversized backyard offers space for entertaining, gardening, or simply enjoying the San Diego weather. It’s also ideal for building a guest house, home office, or creating a private retreat for family and friends. Located in a quiet residential pocket just minutes from downtown, with easy freeway access, this home puts you close to shopping, dining, parks, and more—without the noise and crowds. If you’re looking for a turn-key home with room to grow, this one checks all the boxes. Come see it in person and imagine what’s possible.
