Property Description

We are pleased to present 240 Birmingham Drive, a rare coastal development opportunity located in the heart of Cardiff-by-the-Sea, one of North County San Diego’s most sought-after communities. Situated on three parcels equaling ±12,208 square feet (0.28 acres), the property is currently improved with The Learning Tree Preschool, generating income while entitlements or redevelopment plans are pursued. Zoned C-R11, the site offers a wide range of residential development possibilities, including detached and attached single-family or multi-family housing. The zoning permits up to 11 dwelling units per net acre, with development standards allowing for a 40% maximum lot coverage, a floor area ratio of 0.6 (or 0.51 depending on lot configuration), and building height limits of 22 feet for flat roofs and 26 feet for pitched roofs. Ideally positioned just blocks from the beach, 240 Birmingham Drive provides an exceptional opportunity to deliver new housing in a walkable, amenity-rich setting. Cardiff-by-the-Sea is renowned for its laid-back surf culture, strong community identity, and coastal accessibility. Residents enjoy world-class beaches, scenic trails, boutique shopping, local dining, and top-rated schools—all within minutes. This unique combination of existing income, flexible zoning, and premier location makes 240 Birmingham Drive a standout development opportunity along San Diego’s North County coast.
