About This Home

This remodeled two-bedroom home near downtown Chula Vista underwent a comprehensive reconstruction and renovation between 2025 and 2026. Significant mechanical and structural upgrades include new plumbing, a 40-gallon water heater, a rehabilitated sewer system, complete electrical rewiring, and a 12,000 BTU Aurus mini-split HVAC. Interior and exterior improvements feature a 30-year Owens Corning roof, new drywall, recessed lighting, a custom front deck with French doors, and a one-car garage. Additionally, the property offers indoor laundry, new fencing, and zoning that permits the addition of two more units. Buyers should verify the home's square footage for themselves. We recommend having a licensed home inspection completed before purchase. The home is being sold in as-is condition.
