Property is move-in ready.
The property is in move-in ready condition following an extensive renovation in 2018 that replaced all major systems, including electrical, plumbing, gas lines, and the roof. The interior features updated hardwood-style flooring, modern ductless A/C units, and a fully remodeled bathroom with floor-to-ceiling stone tile and a glass enclosure. While the kitchen features high-end granite countertops and modern stainless steel appliances, the cabinet style is slightly dated, placing it firmly in the 'good' category rather than 'excellent' despite the recent 2022 exterior refreshes.
The home features extensive 2018 and 2022 upgrades, including all-new electrical, plumbing, gas lines, a tankless water heater, and ductless A/C, ensuring a move-in-ready experience with all major systems addressed.
Ideally situated just steps from the beach and the Bayshore Bikeway, the property offers exceptional walkability to the Imperial Beach Pier, local dining, and the upcoming Gaylord Pacific development.
The lot is uniquely equipped with full RV/boat hookups—including 30-amp service, a sewer dump, and hot/cold water access—complemented by a refreshed exterior featuring a new pergola and deck.
With only 675 square feet of living space, the small 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom layout may feel restrictive for buyers requiring more storage, home office space, or room for a growing family.
The property is zoned for local elementary and middle schools with low performance ratings (2/10 and 3/10), which may be a significant drawback for families and could impact future appreciation.
The best priced single family residence in all of Imperial Beach! Just steps from the beach and the Bayshore Bikeway, this beautifully updated coastal cottage is truly move-in ready. The exterior was refreshed in 2022 with new interior and exterior paint, updated landscaping, fencing, pergola, deck, washer/dryer, and upgraded locks. Major improvements include a newer roof, bathroom remodel and custom closets, and a full renovation in 2018 featuring dual-pane windows, stucco, cement entryway, seamless gutters, ductless A/C and heat pump systems, solar tubes, tankless water heater, whole-house water filtration, and all-new electrical, plumbing, and gas lines. Additional highlights include fiberglass front and back doors and RV/boat hookups with 30-amp service, sewer dump, and hot/cold water access. You'll love being in close proximity to the beach, Palm Ave with lots of restaurants and shops, the Bayshore Bikeway, IB Pier, Dunes Park, The Gaylord Pacific and so much more!
