This 1,413 sq. ft. Craftsman-style bungalow is resting on a spacious 9,148 sq. ft. lot in the sought-after East Mesa neighborhood. In addition to the main residence, there is a 367 sq. ft. detached hobby room with a private entrance, saltillo tile floors, high ceilings, and loft. The charming main house boasts a classic wood shingle siding and a covered porch that invites you to relax and enjoy the coastal breeze. Step inside the home to discover high ceilings and a spacious living room. While the home is in mostly original fixer condition, its vintage character shines through, offering an exciting opportunity for renovation. A large sunroom addition at the back of the house provides natural light and opens directly to the kitchen. Over the top of this addition is a large rooftop deck accessible via a spiral staircase. The deck is ideal for entertaining or enjoying views of the surrounding area with ocean peeks in the distance. The oversized lot provides ample space for expanding the home or simply enjoying the large front and backyards. Mature hedges surround the front and sides of the property, ensuring a peaceful and private atmosphere. The detached garage was initially converted into a hobby room and workshop. Bathroom and kitchen facilities were added later. This garage conversion is an ideal candidate for an ADU (Buyer would need to pursue an ADU permit and modifications may be required). Additionally, the house may be eligible for short-term vacation renting as it is located in the Coastal Zone, making it an appealing investment opportunity. Located less than a mile from Leadbetter Beach and Shoreline Park. Washington Elementary School District.
