New Price!!! Discover the allure of the Josselyn House, an architectural gem gracing just under 1.4 acres of exclusive San Diego land. Behold stunning vistas stretching to Mexico, Coronado, and Downtown, visible from the primary bedroom sanctuary and relax and enjoy the inviting living and music rooms on the main level. Original hardwood floors, timeless built-ins, and lofty ceilings enhance the historic charm of this distinguished residence. Honored as a Local Designated Significant Building in National City, this home embodies the legacy of its builder, Charles L. Josselyn, an early business pioneer. Nestled amidst the property's lush landscape are several sheds, fruit trees, and a rare sense of privacy, offering a retreat unparalleled in the area. Journey up the driveway to discover a custom barn/carriage house awaiting your prized possessions or car collection. Ready for restoration, this home beckons to be returned to its original grandeur, preserving its historic significance while embracing modern comforts which can make it your dream home. We also have a feasibility study to showing what the addition of a 3 bedroom, 2 bath ADU as well as converting the barn into a 3 bedroom, 2 bath can do for the savvy investor. Call us for details. Moreover, with its RS-2 zoning, the property presents the potential for subdivision into single-family detached residences, (5,000 sf lots with a density of 6-9 dwellings per acre). Whether you envision living in a historic masterpiece, developing the land, or a combination of both, the opportunities are as vast as your imagination. Seize the moment to schedule a tour or inquire further--unlock the endless possibilities of the Josselyn House today.
