About This Home
4040 Rosarita has been in the same family for over 40 years. It’s been home to birthdays, milestones, backyard BBQs with a view, and the bittersweet goodbye of a family closing one chapter and opening another. With four bedrooms on one level and an attached two-car garage, this La Mesa home is ready for someone new to make it their own. Located on the west side of Mt. Nebo, the lot is one of the largest in the neighborhood and offers sweeping views that never get old. Both the family room and formal living room open directly to the yard and covered patio—perfect for morning coffee, family dinners, or quiet evenings watching the sunset. Nearby, you’ll find the hidden La Mesa stairs that lead right down to La Mesa Village with its local shops, restaurants, and community events. Close to Helix High and La Mesa Arts Academy, this location blends charm, convenience, and connection in one special place.
