ADU DREAM OPPORTUNITY + PAID-OFF SOLAR + ALLEY ACCESS! Expansive lot with rear alley entry and existing barn creates the perfect setup to build a large ADU with garage, guest house, or income-producing unit (buyer to verify). Whether you’re looking to offset your mortgage, create multi-generational living, or develop long-term value—this property delivers. Located just one block from Downtown San Dimas, this beautifully restored 1912 Craftsman blends timeless character with modern upgrades in one of the city’s most desirable neighborhoods. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully remodeled to preserve its historic charm while enhancing everyday living. Features include restored original hardwood floors, a designer kitchen with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, farmhouse sink, and a statement backsplash. Both bathrooms have been tastefully updated with vintage-inspired finishes that honor the home’s early 1900s roots. A versatile bonus room with French doors opens to the backyard deck—ideal for a home office, creative space, or additional living area. The primary suite offers a walk-in closet, en-suite bath, and direct outdoor access. Step outside to a spacious backyard designed for both enjoyment and expansion. With alley access and a detached rear structure, the layout is ideal for those looking to build a larger ADU with its own garage, separate entrance, and private yard—an increasingly rare and valuable setup. Paid-off solar adds immediate savings and long-term efficiency.
