About this home

Single Family · Built 1938 · Historic

Charming 560 sq ft home on a .553 ac (24,089 sq ft) lot, currently rented for $1,350/month—great income while planning your next project! Located on a quiet cul-de-sac in a well-kept neighborhood. A recent BLA adjusted the boundary line between parcels into a straight line. Combined with the adjacent .537 ac parcel, zoning allows up to five dwellings (possibly six—buyer to verify). Build duplexes or single-family homes, keep the home as an ADU, or design your dream home on over an acre. Water on property, sewer available on 36th. Buyer to verify all information and perform due diligence.
