2004 Shire

Opportunity rarely arrives with this much land. Set on a sprawling 1.19-acre lot in the established Rancho El Cajon neighborhood of El Cajon, 2004 Shire Drive is a 3-bedroom, 3-bath single-family home offering a canvas for the buyer with vision—investor, renovator, or estate-minded owner-occupant alike. The lot is the headline. At over 51,000 square feet, the property features mature bougainvillea, towering trees, established landscaping, and an in-ground pool—all setting the stage for what this estate could become. A wood pergola runs along the side of the home, leading to a covered patio area framed by magenta bougainvillea in full bloom. Multiple sheds offer additional storage or workshop potential. Inside, 2,396 square feet of single-level living includes a generous great room anchored by a classic brick fireplace with flanking built-in cabinetry—a focal point with real architectural character. The kitchen features a functional peninsula layout with ample cabinetry. The home retains its original mid-century character throughout, priced accordingly for the buyer ready to bring their own update. Rounding out the offering: 2-car attached garage and a school zone that feeds into Granite Hills High School. Sold as-is through a trust—an estate sale offering real value in a market where lots of this size are increasingly rare.
