4 Beds · 3.5 Baths · 3,180 Sq Ft · 1.22 Acres
Room to Breathe, Room to Earn
Over an acre of El Cajon land, all on one level. This 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath home sits on 1.22 acres with 3,180 square feet of single-story living, a private pool, and the kind of elbow room that’s getting harder to find this close to everything.
This isn’t just a place to live. The home has been operating as a working short-term rental, so the next owner gets more than a house — they get a property with a track record. Move in and spread out, keep it booked, or do a little of both. Furniture is negotiable, which makes stepping into the rental side even easier.
A70 agricultural zoning opens the door to gardens, animals, and outdoor projects that a typical suburban lot simply won’t allow. If you’ve been dreaming about trading a small yard for real land, let’s take a look.
