About This Home
As of July 2024Enjoy sunset views from this prime, and private, west end cul-de-sac and canyon location in University Heights. With 1940's flair, this home is flooded with light and has beautiful hardwood floors; French, all glass doors, that lead out to 1 of 2 fully enclosed yards with fireplace, spa and breezy westerly views. The main home is 3BR 1.5BA, 1205 sqft with freshly painted interior and exterior. The garage was converted to a modern 400 sqft ADU in 2021 and is a great addition to the home (permit pulled but not finalized). 3 off street parking spots, as well as a chicken coop and raised garden beds. See supplement for more special details... Amazing style in this 1940's home with a rounded wall between the living and dining rooms, round entry window, art deco style ceiling moldings and door knobs, mid-century modern wall lighting on either side of the fireplace, hardwood floors in all room and the kitchen floor has just been refinished. Custom wood cabinetry in the kitchen with granite counters, 5 burner gas range, microwave, and full walk-in pantry. Spacious main bathroom with skylight, stained glass window and lots of built-in cabinetry. The primary BR also has westerly views, and access to the outdoor patio with the spa, fireplace and lush tropical landscaping. Other improvements include dual paned windows, central heat and A/C, separate laundry area in the breezeway, and pebbled walkways and patios. Both the front and side yards are fully enclosed by Japanese inspired fencing and perfect for an outdoor dining room. Access the modern ADU from its own entrance and enjoy a private retreat or work space, all with a flagstone patio and garden. The ADU is also full of light and has modern fixtures, a beautifully tiled bathroom, split heat/AC unit and recessed lighting. The parking area is the driveway with an additional space off the street that is perfect for another vehicle. This area also boasts handcrafted outdoor lighting featuring San Diego's beloved Torrey Pine, and a beautiful wall mosaic by a local San Diego artist and custom designed chicken coop! A really fabulous property!
