About this home

This is a one of a kind opportunity for an individual, family, or developer. This property is walking distance to the beach, the world famous HB Pier, Main Street, Downtown, and Pacific City. It has the best peek-a-boo view down Lake Street to the Pacific Ocean on the east side of Alabama Street. Please do your due diligence, but if you want to add a second and third story, or scrape it and build from the bottom up, you'll have one of the city's classic homes or 2 on 1, or main home with an ADU! Buyers must perform due diligence. The home was lovingly built in 1939. The owner's dad and grandfather added a den, 3rd bedroom, bath, and 2 car garage in the 50's. This home was built before the alley existed and its features are 'grandfathered in. Again, buyers must do due diligence. The inside needs, paint, and window coverings and it will shine. The walls are real lath and plaster! As well, under the carpet is the original hardwood flooring. There aren't many of these left and none with this stellar location for a multi-generational home!!!! Walk Score rates the home a "Walk Score" of 71-Very Walkable, most errands can be accomplished on foot. Walk Score gives the home a "Transit Score" of 35-A few nearby public transportation options. Walk Score gives the home a "Bike Score" of 78-Very Bikeable, biking is convenient for most trips.

Pros & Cons

Pros

Great Schools: Elementary School: Huntington Seacliff Elementary School (9/10). High School: Huntington Beach High School (9/10).
Unbeatable Coastal Location: Exceptional walkability to Huntington Beach Pier, Main Street, Downtown, Pacific City, and the beach, boasting a Walk Score of 71 and Bike Score of 78.
Ocean View & Development Upside: Features a desirable 'peek-a-boo' ocean view with significant potential to enhance views and expand living space by adding additional stories or developing an ADU.
Unique Development Opportunity: Rare 'grandfathered in' features due to its pre-alley construction, offering flexibility for redevelopment (e.g., 2 on 1, main home with ADU) or substantial expansion.
Historic Character & Original Details: Built in 1939, the home retains charming original features like lath and plaster walls and hardwood flooring beneath the carpet, appealing to those seeking classic appeal.
Access to Top-Rated Schools: Located within a district offering highly-rated public schools, a significant draw for families.

Cons

Significant Renovation Required: The property is described as needing paint and window coverings, and its age (1939) suggests potential for extensive cosmetic and systemic updates to meet modern standards.
Dated Infrastructure: As a 1939 build, the home likely has original or older infrastructure (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that may require substantial investment for upgrades or replacement.
High Investment Threshold: The nearly $1.8M list price, coupled with the need for extensive renovations, positions this as a high-capital investment, potentially limiting the buyer pool to developers or those with significant renovation budgets.
