Quaint Encinitas bungalow on an 8900 sq. ft. lot with a great central location. Endless possibilities with many options to build or remodel. Keep the current cottage as a guest house and build your dream home on the westerly portion of the parcel. Speed up your building processing time by keeping at least 50% of the current structure. This allows for a remodel permit saving time with the City’s CDP (Coastal Development Permit) process. Current zoning is R-5 which allows 35% lot coverage. All utilities are to the site including sewer, water, gas and electric. Conveniently located between Leucadia Blvd and Encinitas Blvd. offering easy access to I-5, shopping, restaurants and is right down the street from the YMCA. Short distance to Downtown Encinitas and Moonlight Beach.
