Some homes are just houses. This one is an opportunity! Imagine waking up every morning w room to breathe. Nestled in the coveted Foothill neighborhood of Vista, classic 1958 ranch-style home sits on a rare, fully flat & usable .52 AC lot where the possibilities are as wide open as the California sky above you. 5 bdrms & 3 baths, there's space for everyone-family, guests, home office, or whatever life calls for. The generous lot begs for the pool you've always dreamed of, an ADU for multigenerational living or rental income, a garden, a workshop-you name it.This is North County San Diego living at its most authentic: quiet, tree-lined streets, that unhurried sense of space that's nearly impossible to find, yet minutes from the charm of downtown Vista, top-rated schools & neighborhood parks.Abundant parking. Timeless bones. Endless potential.
