About This Home
As of May 2025Exceptional opportunity to enjoy the 1920s history of downtown San Luis Obispo, as well as to BUILD a 2nd home at 1520 Beach Street. The character-filled, two bedroom, one-bath property has retained its charming warmth, while also adding the benefit of an updated interior, which includes a fireplace, modern bathroom, new flooring, and paint. A light and breezy ambience highlights the open flow from the stoop to the backyard patio. The fenced, outdoor area provides a separation from the remainder of the R2-zoned parcel. It is perfect for taking a few quiet moments to either design a future dwelling, enjoy the company of guests and pets, or have an outdoor meal. A desirable feature of this property is its central location, which is only a few minutes to downtown SLO, Emerson park, hiking, schools, and local restaurants and coffee shops.
