About this home
Opportunity abounds —just minutes from SDSU. Set on an ample-sized lot, this charming and light-filled 2-bedroom, 1-bath home offers a rare chance to create something truly special. An optional third bedroom adds flexibility, while the thoughtful siting of the home leaves substantial space at the rear of the property for an ADU, subject to applicable approvals. The one-car garage and generous outdoor space further enhance the possibilities. Remodel and expand the existing residence or add an ADU to maximize the property’s versatility and value. A compelling offering in a highly desirable SDSU-area setting, close to campus, shopping, dining, and all that San Diego has to offer.

College East, located between San Diego State University and Lake Murray, is a residential and campus-adjacent San Diego neighborhood with mid-century ranch homes and canyon-edged streets. The neighborhood’s energy concentrates around the College Ave & El Cajon Blvd corridor, where taquerias, coffee counters, and late-night bites keep the sidewalks active. Local pillars include the historic Aztec Theatre at SDSU, the open-air Viejas Arena, and the College Area Farmers’ Market. Low-slung houses, small apartment courts, and palms line the flatter blocks, while the edges tilt into brushy canyons and trailheads. Daily rhythms follow the university calendar, with patios and study-friendly cafes shaping the street scene. Parks and the lake add a calm counterpoint to the busier arterials.
