Price Improvement! Welcome to Shangri-La! A rare corner-lot triplex in the heart of El Cajon. This meticulously maintained property sits on an oversized 0.24-acre lot (10,375 sq ft) and offers something you simply don't see every day - space, personality, and resort-style living. The unit mix includes 469 Taft, a 2 bed/ 1 bath residence with original oak hardwood floors and a new forced air heater and A/C system; 475 Taft, a 1 bed/ 1 bath unit with its own private side entrance and spacious kitchen; and 477 Taft, a 1 bed/ 1 bath unit featuring an expansive living room with an electric fireplace. Energy efficiency is enhanced by a 7.97 kW solar system installed in Summer 2018. For investors seeking additional upside, the generous lot size and configuration may allow for the addition of a fourth unit (buyer to verify w/city). The grounds are thoughtfully landscaped with drought-tolerant plantings throughout, multiple well-kept patio areas, and a large, newly refinished sparkling pool that creates a true backyard retreat atmosphere. The layout provides privacy and separation between units while still feeling open and welcoming. Envision a multi-generational living arrangement, occupy one unit while generating income from the others, or hold it purely as a strong pride-of-ownership investment, the flexibility here is exceptional. Each unit features updated kitchens and bathrooms, additional storage, and abundant off-street parking, along with a 1.5-car garage accessed off Camden Ave. Come see this triplex with character, space and soul!
