AddressIntel AI Briefing
An exceptional candidate for a teardown-and-mansionize play given the massive 10,000 sqft lot and tiny 920 sqft 1952 structure. The extremely high average zip code sales and $6.4M ARV ceiling present incredible developer upside. Soil liquefaction is present but manageable given the high margin of safety.

Deep lot · ~64 ft frontage × 203 ft deep — room to set a detached ADU back from the street with a buffer — reads as a separate home.
Screening heuristic based on lot size, existing coverage, lot orientation, and hazard overlays. CA ADU law is ministerial statewide; verify max size, setbacks, and JADU owner-occupancy with the local planning dept.
Redevelopment Potential
Small, older home using a low share of the allowable building envelope on a sizable lot — a scrape-and-rebuild or major-expansion play. Zoning allows roughly 3,550 sqft of gross floor area on this lot.
