PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • Great Schools

    Elementary School: Huntington Seacliff Elementary School (9/10). High School: Huntington Beach High School (9/10).

  • Comprehensive Restoration

    This 1914 vintage cottage has been meticulously restored to 'better than new' condition, featuring all-new plumbing, electrical, roofing, and a modern kitchen while preserving authentic beach charm like the original wavy glass windows.

  • Prime Coastal Location

    Situated on a quiet street in the heart of Downtown Huntington Beach, the property offers exceptional walkability to the beach, pier, Main Street Village, and Pacific City without the noise of high-traffic blocks.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • Extremely Limited Square Footage

    With only 564 square feet of living space, the interior is exceptionally compact, which may limit the property's appeal to a niche buyer pool or those seeking a primary residence with more room.

  • High Price per Square Foot

    The list price of $1,599,000 for a sub-600 square foot home results in a very high price-per-square-foot ratio, which may pose challenges for traditional appraisals and value-conscious buyers.

About 522 11th

Here is a Vintage Downtown Huntington Beach Cottage which has been FULLY RESTORED, to “Better Than New” condition! Absolutely darling 2 Bedroom 1.5 Bath on a quiet street & block which is “close, but not too close” to the Beach, Pier, Schools, Parks, Main Street Village, and Pacific City. The structure was meticulously “renewed” with new plumbing, electrical, roof, flooring, tankless water heater, modern kitchen, bathrooms... and more! The large attic with pull down-ladder provides plenty of storage for your seasonal clothes and beach gear in case you decide to rent out the cottage a portion of the year. The vintage wavy glass windows & frames were preserved (where possible) to retain an authentic beach cottage vibe. The landscaping was designed for ease-of-maintenance and the location of the structure makes this site ideal to add a two level ADU above a new two car garage in back. No Wells on the site. If you are looking for something “cute” and believe that sometimes “less is more” in a beach house, this is one you should look at... Nothing else like it available! Lots of parking on-site when you have friends come to visit for the Downtown HB Events (4th of July, US Open of Surfing, Pacific Air Show, AVP Volleyball, etc). And, No HOA Rules & Dues to worry about with this property!
