About This Home

As of June 2023

Welcome to 9844 Summit Drive, a gorgeous Mt. Helix home Built-in 1913 by Ed Fletcher, "The Grossmont Inn" that is full of rich history and classic charm. Boasting expansive views over the surrounding area, an open-plan 3,247 sqft layout, and a quiet yet central location, this property is sure to impress a wide range of astute property buyers. Stepping inside the home, you’ll get a sense of its old-world charm and elegant style. Lovely large windows allow an abundance of natural light to filter throughout while framing the spectacular views, stunning hardwood flooring flows underfoot, and original details add to the character. In the remodeled kitchen you’ll discover sweeping granite countertops, a Viking cooktop, and a gorgeous bay window. From here you can move into one of the multiple living areas, including the formal dining room, the spacious family room, and the downstairs lounge room. An expansive wrap-around deck with a platform invites you to dine outdoors and take in the awe-inspiring views. During the warmer months, a tranquil swimming pool surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens will be a wonderful spot to catch up with family and friends. There are three bedrooms in the home, each one with its own enchanting layout. Bedroom one has a high timber ceiling and access to a sun-drenched patio, bedroom two has a step-up platform and patio access, while bedroom three has a built-in desk from which you can take in the picture-perfect views. Extending the layout further are four well-maintained bathrooms and a well-appointed laundry room. The home is set on a large lot, surrounded by established landscaped gardens and soaring mature trees. The enviable views can be enjoyed from almost every part of the property thanks to its elevated position. A long driveway sets the home back from the street, adding to its peaceful and private feel. Ideally located in the highly desirable "Mt. Helix" neighborhood in La Mesa, you'll enjoy plenty of privacy and peace while still being a short drive away from all conveniences and amenities you might desire.
