What's special

Expansive lotExpansive gardenPalms and lush landscapingCharming red-brick monterey-style home

A unique oversized property is available for the first time in over 35 years. Situated on the desirable near North End, this expansive lot is just shy of half an acre on the bright, sunny side of the street. The existing home has had only two owners and features an expansive garden with mature canopy ficus and live oak trees, accented by palms and lush landscaping. A 20-yard lap swimming pool and an abundance of light, air, and open sky set this property apart from standard North End lots. The charming red-brick Monterey-style home offers 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms. This is a rare opportunity to own a vintage residence on a large lot or to create the compound of your dreams on a parcel that offers endless possibilities. Sites like this provide a level of privacy and potential for personalization rarely available on the North End. Opportunities of this caliber seldom come to market.
