Property is extensive renovation needed.
Originally built in 1948 (>70 years old) with no significant renovations to the main living structure. The interior features stained carpeting, dated bathroom fixtures, and unknown permits for additional space. Critically, the gas is disconnected and the listing emphasizes development-ready features like a soils report and paid school fees, indicating the home requires a total rehab or is being sold for land value.
The oversized detached garage, rebuilt in 2003 with high ceilings and existing sewer lines, provides an exceptional head start for a high-value Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) conversion.
Significant development hurdles have already been cleared, including a completed land survey, soils report, and paid school fees, offering a streamlined path for builders or renovators.
Situated in a prestigious historic neighborhood on a tree-lined street, the property offers excellent proximity to top-rated schools, parks, and the vibrant shopping and dining of downtown Willow Glen.
The property was recently sold within the past year on 2025-10-21. The sold price is $1,260,000.00.
The presence of additional living space with unknown permits poses potential challenges for financing, insurance, and future code compliance during the renovation process.
At just 816 square feet with the gas currently disconnected, the home requires substantial investment and expansion to meet modern residential standards and functionality.
This Willow Glen home was originally built in 1948 and is in a historic area. The huge detached garage has potential for an ADU with its tall ceilings, a half bath (the sewer lines are already there!) and was completely rebuilt on 2003. The house has tons of potential, LED can lighting is already installed! Inside laundry and additional living space with unknown permits. The spacious back yard has been cleared of plants, the land survey has been completed, the gas is disconnected, the school fees are paid and the soils report is done! Beautiful Willow Glen neighborhood with a tree lined street and close to schools, parks, shopping and freeways.
