A rare opportunity to own a remarkable piece of National City history! Officially designated as the Elizur Steel-Crandall-Ennis House, this iconic Victorian residence was built in 1879 by Elizur Steele, a prominent local builder and citizen. Rich in history, character, and timeless elegance, this architectural treasure was originally constructed of redwood and relocated to its present setting in Heritage Square in 1977. Distinctive towers, ornate trim, intricate woodwork, and beautiful stained-glass windows showcase the exceptional craftsmanship of a bygone era, while modern comforts and conveniences complement its historic charm. A grand staircase serves as a striking centerpiece, while the enchanting upstairs covered balcony invites you to relax and appreciate the exquisite architectural details that make this residence truly one of a kind. Adding to its exceptional appeal, the property benefits from the Mills Act, offering significant property tax savings and a valuable financial advantage to owning a historic home. Offering remarkable versatility, this distinguished property is currently configured as a duplex, presenting an excellent opportunity for rental income, multigenerational living, or a unique live/work arrangement with business space downstairs and private living quarters above. Alternatively, the home offers the potential to be returned to a grand single-family residence. Situated on a generous 7,500-square-foot corner lot, the charming grounds feature a picturesque gazebo, expansive patio areas ideal for entertaining, and inviting outdoor spaces that complement the home's historic character. A detached two-car garage and additional secured parking for three vehicles, conveniently accessed from the alley, complete this extraordinary property. A truly rare opportunity to own a celebrated piece of history, combining architectural significance, exceptional flexibility, and the added benefit of substantial property tax savings.
