A True Hidden Gem in the Heart of Riverside, formerly known as "The Idea House". In the mid-1990s, a redevelopment agency purchased this Victorian known as “the idea house” and had it fixed up as part of a TV show. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a unique and versatile property in the thriving City of Riverside. Situated on a large corner lot, this expansive home features 6 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms — including a private in-house apartment — offering a variety of potential uses. Whether you're an investor looking to continue its use as a sober living facility, transform it into student housing, or develop a charming boutique hotel just minutes from downtown Riverside, the possibilities are endless (buyer to verify zoning and permitted uses). With Riverside’s rapid growth and revitalization, this property is perfectly positioned to be a standout asset. Are you ready to be a visionary and capitalize on one of the Inland Empire’s fastest-growing markets?

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
