About This Home

As of August 2026

Perched quietly along the canyon in evolving El Cerrito Heights, 5409 Redland Dr offers the rare feeling of being tucked away while still connected to the heart of San Diego. From the street, the home presents as a charming single-level residence, but as you move through the property, the topography reveals something far more special — a private canyon retreat that seamlessly connects indoor and outdoor living with an oversized deck capturing the tranquility and essence of this home. This 4 bedroom, 3 bath home offers approximately 2,000 sq ft

  • SupplementRemarks: and has been thoughtfully improved by the current owners in a craftsman-like manner, including a fully permitted addition of a spa like retreat, primary suite with vaulted ceilings, canyon light, and a peaceful connection to the outdoors. It is the kind of space that feels quiet before you even sit down. Inside, the home blends warmth, function, and style with hardwood floors, an updated kitchen, inviting living spaces, designer touches, and a fireplace that anchors the main room beautifully. The deck extends the living area outward and creates a true indoor-outdoor rhythm — morning coffee, evening fire pit, soft canyon sounds, birds, breeze, and privacy with no direct backyard neighbor. El Cerrito Heights continues to gain attention for its curving streets, canyon pockets, central location, and homes with character that feel different from the more predictable neighborhoods nearby. This is one of those homes. Below the main level is an approximately 290 sq ft unfinished basement/storage area with access by a spiral staircase and separate exterior potential, creating exciting flexibility for storage, a workshop, wine room, creative studio, or possible future ADU concept, subject to buyer investigation and approval. Peaceful, private, upgraded, and full of possibility — this canyon-view home is a rare offering in one of San Diego’s quietly rising neighborhoods.
