Attention Investors, Renovators & Visionaries! This is a rare opportunity to restore, renovate, or reimagine a piece of San Marcos history. Situated on approximately 0.25 acre per public records, this 858 sq. ft. home offers 2 bedrooms and 1 bath per public records, plus a bonus room with potential for use as a third bedroom, office, or flex space. Built in 1923 per appraisal (a County Assessor correction reflecting this date is in process). Due to its current condition, the property may not meet Conventional, FHA, or VA lending guidelines; a cash purchase is recommended. Sold in present, as-is condition. A standout feature is the three-story tank house, a rare surviving structure reflecting the agricultural roots of the historic Richland Valley. The interior was informally converted at some point with a kitchen on the ground floor, sleeping areas on the two levels above, and an attached bathroom added to the rear. This space does not appear to reflect permitted construction and should not be relied upon as habitable square footage; the structure shows significant wear and is being sold strictly as-is, with restoration potential for buyers looking to bring it back to code. Given the age and current condition of the structures, visitors are encouraged to exercise care while touring the property and to conduct a thorough inspection, including structural evaluation, prior to submitting an offer. The home predates the neighboring former Hollandia Dairy lands, portions of which are now home to Mission Hills High School and Hollandia Park "” a fascinating link between the property's past and today's surrounding community. The generous quarter-acre lot offers room to expand, add, or reimagine the site, appealing to buyers with a vision beyond the existing footprint, and includes various mature fruit trees. The location adds to the opportunity: minutes from Palomar College and Cal State San Marcos, with easy access to Highway 78, local shopping, and dining, and approximately 20-25 minutes to North County beaches. With North City and other development ongoing, San Marcos continues to grow. Bring your vision and explore the possibilities.
