AddressIntel AI Briefing
Optimal play is stealth density via primary + ADU + JADU conversion to bypass FAR limits on a new build. Since the existing 1928 structure is already updated and near the maximum allowable square footage, a full teardown is blocked by local FAR caps, making interior layout optimization and accessory units the most logical value-add strategy.

Parcel & Zoning Info
ADU Potential
Flag / irregular · ~112 ft frontage × 120 ft deep, a tucked-away rear unit is very private; access is typically via the pole driveway.
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
Existing home already uses most of the allowable floor area, little expansion headroom. Zoning allows roughly 2,940 sqft of gross floor area on this lot.
Screening estimate comparing existing living area to the city's single-family floor-area limit. FAR figure is a discretionary-review trigger, not a hard cap. Treat as approximate. Source: Burlingame Muni Code 25.10.060, Table 25.10-4 (R-1 Floor Area Ratio) (as of 2026-09-03). Verify FAR, coverage, setbacks, and height with the local planning dept.

Proforma ROI Calculator
Back-of-the-napkin deal analysis across development strategies.
Zoning allows roughly 2,940 sqft on this lot, and the default builds to that envelope. The FAR figure is a discretionary-review trigger, not a hard cap.
Median of 12 recent single-family sales in Burlingame (94010): $1,518/sqft. Sized within 25% of the 2,900 sqft build, because smaller houses sell for more per foot and pricing a rebuild off them overstates resale.
Commission, transfer tax and closing. Deducted from resale before profit, so the ROI below is net of the exit rather than gross.
Carry on total capital for the project duration. At 0% the model is a cash purchase; 12 months at a typical construction-loan rate moves ROI by 6 to 10 points on a deal this size, so price it with your real rate.
