Rare opportunity to own a spacious home with incredible potential in a desirable El Cajon neighborhood. Originally designed as a 4-bedroom home, one bedroom was converted to expand the main living area, creating three spacious bedrooms and a larger, more functional living space. The home features a central HVAC system installed just a few years ago and a high-quality whole-home water filtration system for added comfort and clean water throughout. While the interior is dated and ready for renovation, the home offers great bones and nearly 1,900 sq ft of living space, making it the perfect opportunity to customize your dream home or add value as an investment. Spacious lot with endless possibilities. Don’t miss the chance to unlock this home’s full potential.
