Located on a quiet street in the heart of La Mesa, known for its welcoming community and pride of ownership, this home offers a rare opportunity to create something special in a well-established neighborhood at an affordable price. The home features a traditional floor plan with most of the living space on the main level, new windows, a spacious living area highlighted by a charming stone fireplace, and original mid-century character throughout. The only upstairs bedroom is a loft style, offering privacy and flexible use as a bedroom, office, or creative retreat. There appears to be hardwood flooring beneath the existing carpet, ready to be uncovered by the next owner. Set on a generous lot with ample space in both the front and backyard, the property offers significant expansion potential for those looking to remodel, reconfigure, or build out. While the home does require updating and general TLC, it provides an excellent canvas for buyers seeking to personalize or add value in a desirable area. Enjoy no HOA, easy access to freeways, and proximity to La Mesa’s village-style downtown, local shops, dining, parks, and community events that make this area so sought after. Ideal for an owner-occupant, investor, or buyer looking for opportunity in one of East County’s most established and charming neighborhoods.
