About This Home
As of November 2023Country living, city close! Rarely available in the secluded hideaway of Del Dios, this beautiful mid-century cottage has been fully modernized yet retains its historical charm. The main house had a wall between bedrooms removed (possible to replace) to create an expansive single bedroom suite with updated bath, kitchen features newer cabinetry, countertops, and appliance package. Windows throughout have been upgraded to vinyl dual-panes, fresh R38 insulation in the attic helps make the most of the new HVAC.Outside are multiple decks and patios offering a variety of secluded entertaining spaces with spa, outdoor fireplace, custom lighting, enormous boulders and old-growth trees incorporated into the landscape, and an outdoor-accessible half bath. Backyard bunkhouse provides amenities for guests and a custom outdoor shower along with easy access to plumbing for a possible studio conversion, plus a handy storage shed. Downstairs is a fully self-contained accessory unit with bedroom, updated kitchen, full bath, and its own new mini-split climate control system – current owner received as much as $2500/month in rental income. The lot feels even more spacious than listed thanks to adjacent unoccupied government land currently used for a carport and secondary driveway. Potential for even more off-street parking for an RV or boat on a lower pad. Get away from city life along the shores of Lake Hodges with its bird sanctuary and fishing/boating while being just minutes from dining, shopping, and freeway access while enjoying rental income or a great multigenerational home.
