Property Description
Income in place in the heart of Clairemont Mesa. This single-level 3BR/1BA, 899 SF home sits on a generous 5,793 SF R-1 lot with a reliable tenant already in place, so you can collect rent while you design, plan, and pull permits. Expand the footprint, take on a full remodel, or explore an ADU (buyer to verify), because this lot gives you room to work. The backyard is the standout: a wide-open lawn, a concrete patio for outdoor dining, a separate gravel lounge area, and mature greenery framing the rear fence line. Inside, a bright living room and a kitchen that opens straight to the yard. Attached one-car garage with in-garage laundry. Minutes to SR-52, I-805, and the shops and dining along Clairemont Mesa Blvd. A rare chance to hold, improve, and make it your own in one of San Diego's most established neighborhoods.
