Built in 1953, this distinctive 4,868 sq. ft. mixed-use property in Escondido offers a compelling blend of residential and retail spaces on a spacious 14,206 sq. ft. parcel. The property consists of three structures, featuring five apartment units and two retail units, set within a tranquil, single-story garden community. It includes two two-car garages, a one-car garage, and plenty of off-street parking for added convenience. The property currently generates additional income through a RUBS (Ratio Utility Billing System), and a new owner can further capitalize on immediate revenue opportunities from laundry and garage rentals. A strategic opportunity lies in transforming the existing garages into a spacious two-bedroom unit while repurposing the two retail spaces into two additional two-bedroom units. This innovative approach would elevate the property's potential, expanding it into an 8-unit community featuring 4 two-bedroom and 4 one-bedroom residences. By maximizing the space and increasing the number of units, this plan enhances the property's value and appeals to a diverse tenant base.
