Property Description

Historic Victorian Farmhouse in Sherman Heights - Located in the heart of Sherman Heights, one of San Diego's oldest and most storied neighborhoods, this 1895 Victorian farmhouse stands as a testament to the City's rich history. The original structure accommodates 3 units; each with their own patios, and in the basement a storage locker for each one and common laundry machines. There is also a separate 1 bedroom cottage and all units are fenced in with a key-gated entry to the lush grounds. It is very likely this property would qualify for Mills Act designation which would greatly reduce the property taxes. Sherman Heights, names after Matthew Sherman, a former mayor of San Diego and Civil War veteran, was established in the late 19th century as a residential area for San Diego's middle class. The neighborhood is known for its well preserved Victorian and Craftsman homes, many of which have been carefully maintained or restored to reflect their original grandeur. This particular property was originally owned by Albert C. Youngkin, a prominent attorney deeply involved in the development of San Diego's civic infrastructure. Youngkin played a key role in city committees focused on essential services such as water management, street maintenance, the planting of trees, contributing significantly to the City's growth during a pivotal time in its history. His daughter Lulu Younkin also left a lasting legacy by introducing the Dewey Decimal System to San Diego libraries, significantly enhancing the organization and accessibility of knowledge within the City. The farmhouse itself has undergone extensive renovations to ensure its longevity and functionality. Recent upgrades include a new foundation, updated plumbing and electrical systems, and the addition of a basement that offers practical storage space and a laundry room designed to complement the home's historic character. Despite these modern improvements, the property retains many of its original Victorian architectural features, from intricate woodwork to large, light-filled windows, ensuring that the historic integrity of the home is preserved. Situated in a neighborhood that has witnessed the transformation of San Diego from a small town to a bustling city, this property offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of history. The 638-640 22nd Street farmhouse is not just a residence; it is part of the narrative of Sherman Heights and the broader story of San Diego's development.
