Description

A Little House. A Very Big Piece of Land. Set on an exceptionally wide 14,742 SF parcel (0.34 acres), 916 Franquette Ave offers tremendous potential for its next chapter. Unlike many oversized Willow Glen lots that are long and narrow, this parcels substantial width creates a compelling canvas for what could come next. Build one large-scale custom home. Explore two homes side-by-side. Consider additional residential possibilities, subject to zoning, subdivision requirements, City approvals & buyer verification. The existing 3BR/1BA, 954 SF home was built in 1927 and originally served as the sales office for the Lincoln Half Acres subdivision. It has remained in the same family for 85 years. Set along a wide, private residential street, the property offers compelling appeal for an end user, builder or investor. Just over 1 mile from Downtown Willow Glen's fantastic restaurants, boutique shops, lively events & everyday conveniences along Lincoln Ave, with access to great schools. Franquette has also seen multiple $4M+ home sales in 2026. A rare combination of substantial land, exceptional width and a desirable Willow Glen location. A special opportunity for someone ready to see beyond what is here today and imagine what could be here tomorrow.
