Unlock the potential of this well-built 1957 home, set on an expansive 11,694 sq. ft. lot in unincorporated Whittier. According to the County Planning Department, the property is zoned R2, making it an exceptional opportunity for those interested in developing or taking on a project. The home offers a solid foundation to build upon: a 3-bdrm, 2-bath layout with great natural light and classic mid-century details. Big front-facing windows brighten the living room each morning, highlighting the original coved ceilings. A traditional dining room with built-in cabinetry and an updated three-quarter bath add to the home's value. Important upgrades are already in place, including nearly paid-off solar, a newer FAU/AC system (less than 5 years old), dual-pane windows, a stamped-concrete driveway, and newer laminate flooring in the main living areas. These improvements give you a jump-start as you envision your updates or expansion plans. A separate laundry room leads to the enormous backyard, truly a blank canvas with room to expand the existing structure, create outdoor living spaces, or pursue other development paths allowed under R2 zoning. The detached two-car garage adds even more flexibility for future use. This property delivers space, zoning, and opportunity in a location that continues to see strong demand. This is your chance to shape something special from the ground up.
