About This Home
As of November 2021Do not miss out on this very rare, meticulously cared-for mid-century modern home with views of downtown SD, in charming Mount Helix. The 3 BR, 2 BA house with fully paid solar is perfectly situated on a 15,700 sq. ft. lot which backs up to a lush valley on a quiet street—you’d never know it is just minutes away from the hip downtown of La Mesa. Solid hard wood floors and tongue and groove wood ceilings, new roof and HVAC system make this move-in ready. Recent upgrades to the bathrooms and kitchen provide a modern touch while maintaining the highly desirable mid-century modern style throughout. Two fireplaces anchor the living room upstairs and the very stylish den downstairs, providing ample space to find a quiet place to relax or set up a desk and work. Views of downtown San Diego can be seen from multiple places in the home, including the master, back deck and living room. A 120 sq. ft. shed/studio, raised plant beds, and exotic trees including macadamia nuts, walnuts, peaches, avocados, oranges, grapes, grapefruit, limes, lemons, figs and Mexican apples surround the property add to the allure.
