About This Home

Beautifully remodeled and move in ready, this exceptional 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom home offers the perfect blend of style, comfort, and versatility. Thoughtfully updated approximately three years ago, the home features a bright open floor plan, updated flooring, windows, remodeled bathrooms, and a roof installed during the renovation. The designer kitchen showcases white cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a kitchen island with bar seating, creating the ideal space for everyday living and entertaining. Two generous primary suites provide exceptional flexibility for multigenerational living, extended guests, or a private home office. The larger primary retreat features a walk-in closet, fireplace, and French doors opening to the expansive private backyard, creating a seamless indoor and outdoor lifestyle. Set on a spacious lot with potential for an ADU, the property offers added flexibility and future possibilities. Additional highlights include owned solar, RV parking, and an attached two car garage. Ideally located near the San Diego Country Club, Third Avenue Village, San Diego Bay, Downtown San Diego, and the Gaylord Pacific Resort and Convention Center, with convenient access to shopping, dining, golf, waterfront recreation, and Otay Ranch Mall. This thoughtfully updated home offers modern amenities, flexible living spaces, and an outstanding location in one of South Bay's most convenient neighborhoods.
