Rare opportunity to own two Craftsman-style homes on a single corner lot in the charming Historic District of downtown San Luis Obispo! Located at the corner of Johnson & Palm, these early 1900s homes are full of character and period details, offering flexibility for investors, multi-generational living, or owner-occupants seeking rental income. 879 Johnson Ave features 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom (750 sqft), while 1270 Palm Street includes 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom (1,064 sqft). Both retain the traditional aesthetic and charm of the era, with classic features like double-hung windows that frame views of the neighborhood and surrounding hills. Each home enjoys its own porch, patio, and fenced outdoor space for added privacy. Situated on an R3-zoned lot, the homes are separately metered for water, electricity, gas, and sewer, providing excellent potential for dual occupancy or long- and short-term rental income. Additional amenities include a Tesla charger, and a shed that can serve as a workspace, storage, or be removed to accommodate up to four off-street parking spots. Enjoy being less than 5 minutes to the courthouse, shops, restaurants, and downtown amenities. Just a short commute to Cal Poly, this location blends historic charm with unbeatable convenience. A unique opportunity in the heart of San Luis Obispo – don’t miss it!
