About this property
University Heights is a high-demand, character-rich neighborhood and 1037-1039 Johnson fits right in. A charming 1940’s Craftsman 2-bedroom, 2 bath cottage is the front half of the 2 on 1 property. Great deck for outdoor dining and entertaining and a unique bonus structure not included in the square footage. It contains laundry rooms for both houses & contains a patio room and an additional bathroom. The back portion of the lot features a one bedroom, 1 bath house with a generous carport and alley access. 1037 Johnson has a lovely street presence with gorgeous drought-resistant landscaping, a picture-perfect back deck ready for outdoor dining, coffee, or just enjoying a good book. That deck leads to an even larger deck perfect for fiestas. What do you call a pool house when there is no pool? I don’t know either so I’m just calling it a bonus structure. It does look like it would function perfectly as a pool house but, sincere there is no pool in sight, you can use it for an art studio, man cave, she-shed or whatever suits you. Perhaps it was originally built to house the laundry rooms for both the front and back houses and, at some point in time, an enclosed patio room was added. It is not included in the square footage in the tax records as it was added at some point in time without permits. There is a fence between the front and rear houses for privacy. The gate can be left open or closed off to separate the two homes. The front yard of the back house (1039 Johnson) is a lovely low-maintenance artificial grass surface centered around a beautiful oak tree. There is a concrete patio area as well. This property has access from the alley where it’s carport is located. 1037 and 1039 Johnson have separate SDG&E meters and they share one water meter.
