Set back from the street, this home offers privacy uncommon in homes this close to the beach, and a great opportunity to build your pool on the oversized lot. The interior space features an open floor plan and great canvas to create your dream home. The seller has plans to expand the existing square footage to 3,000 sq. ft. Existing floor plan and proposed floor plan can be viewed in the associated documents. This is a rare opportunity in Solana Beach!
