Property description
A Rare Opportunity in Glendale's Coveted Grandview Neighborhood- Nestled on a picturesque, tree-lined street in one of Glendale's most highly sought-after neighborhoods, this classic Spanish Colonial house offers the perfect blend of vintage charm and untapped potential. The Grandview neighborhood is renowned for its walkability, top-rated Glendale Unified schools (Jefferson Elementary, Toll Middle, and Hoover High), and close-knit community making it a perennial favorite among all buyers. This property presents an exceptional flip opportunity for investors and renovators alike. Originally built in 1935 and remodeled in 1980, the 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home spans 2,038 square feet and features solid bones with original character details including hardwood floors, paneled ceilings, custom built-ins, and walk-in closets while offering a blank canvas for a visionary buyer to modernize and maximize its value. The home enjoys views of the surrounding mountains with recent updates such as a new AC unit, ensuring comfort from day one. With approximately 0.19 acres of land and R1 zoning, this property appears to be ADU-eligible. Per Glendale Municipal Code, properties in this zone may add up to one ADU (up to 1,200 sq ft) plus one Junior ADU (up to 500 sq ft) creating significant rental income potential or multigenerational living options. The generous backyard with existing pool provides ample space for a detached ADU. Buyers to verify all zoning and ADU eligibility directly with the City of Glendale Planning Department. Don't miss this chance to own, renovate, and capitalize in one of Glendale's premier neighborhoods.
