Historic homes and canyon views define Mission Hills
Mission Hills is well-known as one of San Diego’s most cherished residential areas. Its graceful streetscapes and properties brim with a lush mix of mature Jacaranda trees and succulents. Many homes offer canyon views, and others exude a longstanding charm unique to San Diego’s original homes. “Mission Hills is one of the most established upscale areas of the San Diego metro area outside downtown. In Mission Hills, neighbors enjoy a luxe lifestyle of residential serenity, unique dining and popular green spaces. "It’s a place where many aspire to live," says Lisa Padillo, a longtime area resident and Realtor with Compass. "When San Diego was developed in the late 1800s, all the nice palatial homes were built in Mission Hills. You’ll find gorgeous Craftsman-style homes here and many Spanish architectural elements like big open picture windows, Portuguese plaster, and domed archways.”

Shopping and global dining - from Italian chophouses to Sinaloan fare
Deeper into the heart of Mission Hills, there's a newer place everyone's talking about — Wolf in the Woods. This combination wine bar and restaurant combines Native American, European and Hispanic cultural cuisine. Along Mission Hills' central thoroughfare, Fort Stockton Drive, you can stop into the quirky Kettle & Stone coffee bar for a coconut milk latte or quiche. Its earthy décor crafted of stone and wood. It also includes rough-hewn tables that feel like thick slices of the surrounding California landscape. Padillo adds, "Mission Hills is primarily residential, but there's a really cute area along Washington and Goldfinch Streets with some nice restaurants and coffee shops." Another one-of-a-kind must in Mission Hills is Backbone Floral, which is preferred by locals for its stunning bohemian arrangements. Jesse Zmuda, owner of Backbone Floral, shares, "Our shop is the perfect fit for Mission Hills. With our wide-open doors and airy space, you can't miss us on your morning stroll for coffee or evening walk for food. Our vintage-style dried floral arrangements are distinctly suited for the beautiful homes in Mission Hills." She added that the reason they chose Mission Hills is for its "close-knit small neighborhood vibe, from the people to the homes and beautiful parks." Locals head to Cardellino Italian Restaurant for an indulgent chophouse experience with charcoal-grilled steaks and truffle-topped pastas. La Puerta on Goldfinch Street is also a top pick for its celebratory atmosphere and signature un-aged tequila. Having expanded into Mission Hills from its flagship location downtown, La Puerta treats residents to Sinaloa-inspired family recipes made from fresh local ingredients. For grocery shopping, Von's is convenient on Washington Street in the neighborhood; however, wellness-focused Mission Hills residents love their Lazy Acres Natural Market for organic and seasonal groceries and nutritional supplements.
