Overview

This 1940s historic Craftsman property offers three units within the main house plus a separate tiny house studio with 1 bathroom located in the back. The home is set up and staged for short-term rentals, with four professionally designed, fully furnished units down to guest-ready kitchen and household details. The unit mix includes one 2-bed/2-bath unit and two 1-bed/1-bath units, along with a tiny house studio/1 bath. Three units are individually metered and three units include in-unit stackable washer/dryers. Recent capital improvements include a newer roof, dual-pane windows, and solar (PPA). Off-street parking accommodates five to six vehicles.

Situated in Golden Hill, the property is described as minutes from downtown, Balboa Park, and the airport. WalkScore is provided as 97 with a TransitScore of 76 and a BikeScore of 50, supporting an accessible, neighborhood-oriented tenant or guest experience.

The configuration and existing infrastructure make the property workable for multiple rental strategies beyond short-term stays, including mid-term rentals or living arrangements that combine an owner-occupied unit with income from the others. The tiny house studio is identified as non-conforming, and the property is being sold as a short sale subject to lender and court approval through probate.
