The optimal strategy is an 'SB 9 lot split into 4 units' or 'stealth density: primary + ADU + JADU' to exploit the excellent 96/100 ADU feasibility and 8,276 sqft lot. Built in 1965 and lacking recent renovations, this older structure is a prime candidate for a major value-add or redevelopment. The high household income in this census block supports a robust ARV ceiling for newly constructed units.

Parcel & Zoning Info
ADU Potential
Flag / irregular · Corner lot · ~122 ft frontage × 137 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 3,724 sqft of gross floor area on this lot.
