As of July 2025

Welcome to your private retreat in the heart of Lemon Grove! This beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers 1,217 square feet of upgraded living space on a generous 7,100 square foot lot—complete with a pool, outdoor kitchen, and nice landscaping. From the moment you arrive, you'll be greeted by excellent curb appeal, featuring a landscaped front yard and an extended driveway leading to a 2-car garage. Step inside to find newly installed travertine tile in the entryway. To one side is the kitchen, and on the other is a bathroom that you’ll notice before walking down the hall. The kitchen features tile flooring, newer appliances, ample counter space and cabinets, and a convenient pocket door for added privacy. Natural light fills the adjoining dining area, which offers a view of the backyard and flows seamlessly into the spacious living room. There, you’ll find Pergo Laminate flooring, a beautifully finished fireplace, and a wood accent wall. Down the main hallway, two secondary bedrooms share a full bathroom featuring a shower/tub combo and an expansive vanity with travertine and Durango finishes with tumbled marble accents throughout. The primary suite includes a custom barn door closet and direct access to the beautifully updated bathroom that is noticed upon entry, with a walk-in travertine shower and premium Durango stone finishes. Inside, there are several quality upgrades that enhance everyday living. Step outside into your private backyard paradise, featuring a custom outdoor BBQ area, expansive pool with a slide, plenty of space for entertaining, and a dedicated garden area. The BBQ is built in with custom stone and pebble work, along with a pizza oven, chimney, gas grill, and sink. The pool is a great size and maintains a solar heater, newer variable speed pool pump, and vacuum. There's plenty of hardscape throughout the yard, with space for outdoor furniture, lounge chairs, and the existing gazebo. The garden area has mature fruit trees including citrus, pomegranate, mulberry, dragon fruit, and more, plus room for raised garden beds. Lastly, the dog run on the side of the yard adds further functionality to this incredible outdoor space. This property offers a rare combination of comfort, style, and outdoor living in a prime location with great year-round weather. Located minutes from downtown San Diego, freeways, the airport, and local amenities—don’t miss your chance to make this pool home your own!
