Welcome to this adorable 2-bedroom, 1-bath home in La Mesa. Residential business zoning allows for COMMERCIAL use of this property. This home features refinished hardwood floors and new VCT flooring in the kitchen, offering a fresh and move-in ready feel throughout. All-new dual-pane windows and a new sliding door off the dining area allows for plenty of natural light and easy access to deck and back yard. The kitchen has been updated with brand new appliances (2023), and your washer and dryer are conveniently located inside just off the kitchen. Interior and exterior have been freshly repainted. Multiple updates to the property since 2022 include: new underground sewer lines, new electrical panel in garage, new insulation in the attic, newly landscaped front & back yard with enclosed back patio and custom deck. Outside, enjoy fruit trees including lemon, plum, peach, Valencia orange, and mini mandarin. A newly installed French drain in the back yard landscape, with a sump pump, helps manage stormwater. How about that large lot?!! Lot zoning is RB-D-MU Residential Business, Mixed Use. The lot allows up to 5 dwelling units at 30 units / acre density + ADU. Alternatively, using the California Density Bonus would allow up to 11 units in addition to ADU. The driveway and side yard gates are also newly installed, adding to the home's curb appeal.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
