About This Home
Rare opportunity to acquire a prime piece of real estate in the highly sought-after 90025 zip code. Situated on a spacious, flat 5,799 sq. ft. lot, this LAR1-zoned property offers endless potential for a massive value-add renovation, an expansive addition, or a complete ground-up custom rebuild.
With new construction and luxury fully renovated homes in the immediate neighborhood commanding premium prices—frequently selling between $2.5M and upwards of $3.8M—the After Repair Value (ARV) and return on investment potential here is exceptional. Capitalize on California's ADU laws to maximize the footprint, or design a luxury single-family compound (buyer to verify all zoning, building, and ADU regulations with the city).
