Desirable School Proximity: Located just 0.25 miles from the highly-rated Fletcher Hills Elementary School (rating 8), making it an attractive option for families.

Cons

Age-Related Maintenance Considerations: Despite restoration, the 1929 build year may imply potential for ongoing maintenance or updates to core infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical, foundation) not explicitly detailed as fully modernized.
Significant Price Appreciation & Valuation: The current list price of $1,649,000 represents a substantial increase from its last sale price of $1,005,000 in May 2024, which may require strong market justification for potential buyers.
Undisclosed Cooling System: The property description does not mention a cooling system (e.g., central air conditioning), which could be a significant comfort concern for buyers in El Cajon's climate, especially at this price point.
