This is a rare chance to acquire four adjacent, fully subdivided parcels in a highly desirable area of Vista. Ideally located just minutes from downtown Vista Village, with convenient access to shopping, dining, entertainment, and major freeways, this offering presents a wealth of potential for developers, investors, or end users. The total lot size across all four parcels is approximately 34,111 square feet (0.8 acres). The offering includes the following parcels: Parcel #179-090-42 – 10,442 SF, which includes an existing structure. Parcel #179-090-41 – 9,160 SF of vacant land. Parcel #179-090-43 – 6,699 SF of vacant land. Parcel #179-090-44 – 7,810 SF of vacant land. All four parcels are being sold together for a combined asking price of $1,995,000.The parcel with the existing home features a 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence of approximately 1,400 square feet, plus a detached ADU/guest house—ideal for extended family, rental income, or a home office. The main house boasts solid oak hardwood floors and an updated primary bedroom and bath, blending classic charm with modern comfort. Because the lots are already subdivided, there is potential to develop each parcel with a primary residence and an accessory dwelling unit (ADU), offering strong upside for multi-unit or multi-generational living scenarios. However, buyers are strongly advised to perform their own due diligence with the City of Vista regarding zoning, development potential, and allowable uses. This is an outstanding investment opportunity in a growing area with flexible development possibilities. Don't miss your chance to shape a unique project in one of North County's most dynamic communities.
