This Versatile Single-Story Residence is listed at $999,888, representing a stable entry point at its $993,168 Fair Market Value. Retaining a Well-Maintained 1991 Condition Rating, the property offers immediate value-add potential through cosmetic updates and its spacious 6,500 sq ft lot featuring ADU Potential. Located just one block from La Mirada Academy (K-8) within the San Marcos Unified District, the 2,000 sq ft layout provides exceptional flexibility with five potential bedrooms. This is a strategic acquisition for Owner-Occupants or Multi-Generational Families looking to build equity in a prime location.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property is in well-maintained but largely original 1991 condition. The kitchen and bathrooms feature dated oak cabinetry, white tile countertops, and older white appliances consistent with the era of construction. While the home is clean and functional, it lacks modern updates to flooring, fixtures, and finishes, fitting the criteria for a property that is aged but maintained through regular upkeep.
Located just one block from La Mirada Academy (K-8), this property offers exceptional convenience for families, a high-demand feature that bolsters long-term resale value.
The generous 6,500 sq ft lot provides ample space for an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) or enhanced outdoor living, offering significant upside for multi-generational living or rental income.
With 2,000 sq ft of single-level living space and a flexible floor plan currently configured for five bedrooms, the home easily adapts to large families or remote work needs.
As a first-time offering in 35 years, the property likely requires cosmetic and system updates to transition from its 1991 original condition to modern standards.
The use of removable wall dividers to create extra bedrooms may necessitate additional contractor expenses to either restore the original layout or install permanent, permitted walls.
This charming single-story home offers versatile living with its original 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, perfect for growing families or flexible space needs. Situated on a spacious 6,300 sq ft lot, it provides ample outdoor room for a small ADU, entertaining and relaxing. Enjoy the convenience of walking your children just one block to La Mirada Academy (K-8), with parks, shopping, dining, and freeway access only minutes away. A rare opportunity, this home is hitting the market for the first time in 35 years!
