Nearly unheard of anymore. And hard to find nowadays. A single-story home on a .69-acre lot in the heart of the city! Located close to the freeway and local amenities. There’s ample space behind the home for an ADU, studio, storage, or even a barn. Check with the City of San Marcos for the potential of multi-units. Be sure to take note of the separate gated driveway to access the rear section of the lot. The potential and possibilities are endless! While the home may require some cosmetic touches, the major systems are in working order. You’re going to love the covered patio off the kitchen. And the back covered porch that nearly spans the length of the home. The property is on a sewer and has propane to fire up the range, water heater, and furnace. Out in the 2-car detached garage is where you will find the electric washer and dryer. There is a blacktop driveway up to the home and garage. And a separate gravel driveway to a gated entrance for the rear yard. San Marcos’s favorable climate sets the stage for gardening endeavors. This property already has great fruit-bearing citrus and a Pomegranate tree. This one checks off the boxes on your wants and needs list! Private and large yard, NO HOA/MELLO ROOS, and the ability to make it your own and keep you within budget. Bring the whole family on by to check out this diamond in the rough on this .69-acre setting. Virtual Tour: https://www.wellcomemat.com/mls/54fbc09207811lgjt
