About This Home

2 Blocks To The Beach!! Great location within walking distance to IB pier, shopping, dining and the park. This 3 bedroom and 2 bath home has over 1,693 square feet built in 1957 with numerous upgrades including dual pane windows, solar, roof, newer appliances and tankless water heater. Zoning is R-2 Medium Density so additional structure(s) allowed (buyer to verify use with the City). Detached 2 car garage has a nice workbench and plenty of storage. The yard stretches completely around the house with producing orange and avocado trees, numerous plants and a large deck perfect for entertaining or peaceful relaxation. Coronado is just up the Silver Strand and the Estuary/National Wildlife Refuge has over 360 species of birds with walking trails. The potential for expansion with R-2 Medium Density Zoning adds significant value to this property. See Attached Documents for list of property improvements and City Zoning info.
