About This Home

As of September 2026

Completely reimagined and essentially brand new, 1249 8th Street is a 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offering approximately 1,028 square feet of beautifully renovated living space, all designed for easy coastal living. Set on an expansive 6,300-square-foot lot, this beautifully renovated residence blends modern comfort with the space, privacy, and convenience that make Imperial Beach such a special place to call home. From the moment you arrive, it’s clear that no detail was overlooked. The home has been thoughtfully transformed from top to bottom, with the renovation personally overseen by the homeowners to create a quality home they would be proud to own, not simply a property renovated for resale. Virtually everything is new, including the kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, lighting, appliances, HVAC, electrical, plumbing, sewer line, roof and more. Outside, fresh landscaping creates inviting spaces to relax, entertain, and enjoy the Southern California lifestyle. A large detached garage, additional storage shed, and ample parking provide the kind of flexibility and functionality that is increasingly difficult to find. Just minutes from the beach, parks, shopping, and everyday conveniences, 1249 8th Street offers the best of both worlds: the peace of mind and modern comforts of a brand-new home, with the generous lot and established neighborhood setting you simply can't recreate.
