Welcome to Lomita, known as "The Friendly City" in the South Bay. Nestled mid-block on a charming street of single-family homes, this residence offers incredible potential for renovation and expansion. Imagine building sweat equity by personalizing the existing house and transforming it into your dream home. The property features a detached 2 car garage with an additional room, which would probably be easy to convert into an accessory dwelling unit (ADU). Additionally, a junior accessory dwelling unit (JADU) could likely be created. Live in 1 unit and rent out the others, allowing tenants to help pay down your mortgage. The generous front yard boasts Meyer lemon and banana trees, along with a low-maintenance rock garden. The stately brick walkway and flower beds lead to a charming front porch entry. Inside, the large living room spans the entire front of the home and features two ceiling fans. The sunny and spacious eat-in kitchen offers abundant oak cabinetry, neutral countertops, and a stainless steel gas range. Open the windows to let in the ocean breeze from this west-facing street, and you may occasionally hear soft church bells in the distance, adding a touch of European charm. An open hallway with laundry hookups leads out to the backyard. The full hall bathroom, with 2 access doors, provides ample space and plumbing, making it easily convertible into 2 separate bathrooms, significantly increasing the value and enjoyment of this home. Both bedrooms feature mirrored closets, and the extended rear bedroom overlooking the backyard would make a peaceful primary suite. The tranquil koi pond with a gazebo could be revived with care, adding a serene touch to the outdoor space. A long driveway with a covered patio and carport offers additional entertaining and parking options, especially if the 2 car garage is utilized for an ADU. Some upgrades have already been completed, including dual-pane vinyl windows, enhanced electrical, and a newer roof. This residence offers a remarkably private setting while being conveniently close to shopping, restaurants, parks, freeway access, and just a short jaunt to the beach. Do not miss out on this incredible opportunity to create your perfect home in the heart of Lomita!
