AddressIntel AI Briefing
The optimal play here is a stealth density: primary + ADU + JADU strategy leveraging the high 94/100 ADU feasibility score on a 6,375 sqft lot. While a ministerial SB 9 lot split is also on the table, the local liquefaction hazard zone acts as a construction blocker that will increase foundation and structural engineering costs.

ADU Potential
Flag / irregular · Corner lot · ~125 ft frontage × 126 ft deep, a tucked-away rear unit is very private; access is typically via the pole driveway. A second street frontage lets an ADU take its own entrance and address.
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 3,000 sqft of gross floor area on this lot.
