Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1959, the property shows signs of partial cosmetic updates such as newer LVP flooring and a refreshed bathroom vanity. However, the presence of popcorn ceilings, dated wood paneling, and the 'opportunity' focused description suggest that major systems and the kitchen likely exceed the 15-20 year age mark, requiring further modernization to meet current standards.
The massive 57,934 sqft lot provides rare flexibility for horse property use, heavy equipment storage, or developing a private multi-generational family compound.
The property features a separate 1-bedroom rental unit and established trailer storage income of approximately $1,500/month, offering immediate cash flow opportunities.
Situated in one of El Cajon’s most desirable neighborhoods, the home is within walking distance to Granite Hills High School and local parks, ensuring strong resale value.
The detached two-bedroom building lacks plumbing and water, requiring significant capital investment to convert it into a fully functional ADU or guest house.
Originally built in 1959, the property may require modernization of core systems and cosmetic updates to align with contemporary buyer expectations at this price point.
