About This Home
Charming and updated, this 2 bedroom, 1 bath Spanish-style home, sits on a desirable corner lot in the heart of National City. Originally built in 1935, the home has been tastefully remodeled to blend classic character with modern convenience. Inside, you'll find hardwood and tile flooring throughout, a cozy fireplace, fresh paint, and energy-efficient dual-pane windows that fill the space with natural light. The beautifully updated kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and newer cabinetry--ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. One of the standout features is the converted garage, now a private studio with its own bathroom, perfect for guests, rental income, or a home office.
