AddressIntel AI Briefing
A stealth density: primary + ADU + JADU play is the only viable path to offset the high entry costs on this 1925 build. While SB 9 is theoretically possible, the high acquisition price relative to the size-matched ARV heavily squeezes ground-up margins. No hazard blockers are present, but local market heat is moderate with no active permits directly on-site.

Parcel & Zoning Info
ADU Potential
Flag / irregular · ~134 ft frontage × 156 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 3,350 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 default; district unresolved) (as of 2026-08-24). Verify FAR, coverage, setbacks, and height with the local planning dept.

Back-of-the-napkin deal analysis across development strategies.
Zoning allows roughly 3,350 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 6 recent single-family sales in San Mateo (94401): $829/sqft. Sized within 25% of the 3,400 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.
