Rare opportunities like this do not come along often in La Mesa. Held in the exact same family since it was built in 1942, this single level home sits on a quiet and highly desirable street in the 91942 zip code. For anyone trying to secure a detached single family home for the price of a condo, or for buyers looking for an easy single story layout without sacrificing privacy, this property is an incredible find.  One of the biggest standouts here is the property footprint. The home sits on an extra large lot that offers a massive backyard space with genuine upside. If you need room to expand the current living space down the road, the square footage is there to do it. Alternatively, the expansive yard creates the perfect footprint to build a detached, income producing accessory dwelling unit or ADU to offset a mortgage or accommodate multi generational living.  The location brings together everyday convenience and a great community feel. Students here attend excellent local schools within the La Mesa Spring Valley and Grossmont Unified school districts. You are also just minutes from the local dining, coffee shops, and seasonal farmers markets in La Mesa Village, with straightforward freeway access for an easy commute across San Diego. This home has been loved for generations and is ready for its next chapter.
