About This Home

As of July 2022

Astonishing hilltop views! This secluded, scenic Mid-Century Modern house captures the ocean, Coronado, Downtown, Mexico and East County all at once. A magical mecca of peace and privacy, this polished jewel promises a warm, contemporary lifestyle. Remodeled en suite baths, gorgeous Brazilian Teak floors, a vaulted ceiling living room and expansive glass windows highlight the daytime views and vibrant sunsets. An updated chef’s kitchen boasts mountain views, double-door pantry with ample storage, stainless appliances, lit display shelves, gleaming quartz counters and breakfast bar. Truly enchanting for entertaining! See supplement. Around every corner is a new experience in this Mid-Century Modern, Mortenson designed home. Step out onto the inviting and expansive wrap-around deck where guests will comfortably relax. Meander onto the south yard with startling ocean views of Mexico, Coronado, Downtown, Pt. Loma and even La Jolla. Revel in the special moments you can have in the private meditation retreat which is a nest of rest, whimsical and unique. Marvel at the circa 1902 Col. Ed Fletcher memorial rock with stairs carved where he took prospective clients to choose their future landholdings. Modern San Diego history seen from one spot! The interior is beautifully decorated and thoughtfully conceived. The amenities include a large and well-designed primary suite with exquisite views, separate office, walk-around closet, newly remodeled ensuite bathrooms, circular driveway, water tolerant landscaping. Stunning rock formations and artisan decorative walls, under-house storage spaces, two vehicle covered carport, off-street parking, 5 minutes to freeways. It’s all here! Luxurious Mid-Century design, privacy and fascinating San Diego history
