ADU Potential

Feasibility Score84/100
Max ADU Units2 (ADU + JADU)
Est. ADU Size1,200 sqft
Existing Coverage22.6%

Flag / irregular · Corner lot · ~100 ft frontage × 142 ft deepa 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

Redevelopment Score61/100
ClassTeardown candidate
FAR Utilization48% of allowed
Buildable Headroom+1,627 sqft

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 3,147 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: San Mateo Muni Code 27.18.060 (R1-B/C); 6,000 sqft cap (as of 2026-06-30). Verify FAR, coverage, setbacks, and height with the local planning dept.
