About this House

Welcome to 20802 Margaret Street, a rare opportunity to own an impeccably maintained home on an expansive double corner lot in one of Carson's most desirable tree-lined neighborhoods. Lovingly cared for by just two owners since it was built, this exceptional property combines pride of ownership with thoughtful updates and an oversized lot that offers endless possibilities. This inviting 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom abode offers 1,317 square feet of comfortable living space and has been extensively refreshed with new interior and exterior paint, new hard-surface countertops throughout, new kitchen appliances, new kitchen sink and fixtures, and updated LED lighting in nearly every room. Both bathrooms have been updated with new sinks, fixtures, and toilets, while the spacious living room is anchored by a cozy gas and wood-burning fireplace, creating the perfect gathering space. Major improvements provide peace of mind for years to come, including a brand-new roof on both the house and detached two-car garage, new rain gutters, new automatic garage doors, new backyard patio, new privacy fence, and beautifully landscaped brick flower beds. Additional features include central heating and air conditioning (a rarity), an automatic sprinkler system, and a wheelchair ramp for enhanced accessibility. The true standout, however, is the rare double corner lot—a feature seldom found in the area. With abundant outdoor space, there's ample room for parking, entertaining, gardening, play areas, or future expansion. The generous lot also presents outstanding ADU potential (buyer to verify), offering exciting possibilities for multigenerational living or rental income. Whether you're looking for a move-in ready home, room to grow, or long-term investment potential, 20802 Margaret Street offers a unique combination of meticulous upkeep, extensive upgrades, and an oversized lot that sets it apart from the rest.
We estimate this home will sell faster than 100% nearby.
