About This Property

Fully reimagined hidden gem nestled in the highly coveted, historic Marston Hills — steps from Balboa Park, Hillcrest's vibrant dining scene, boutique shopping, and the iconic Sunday Farmer's Market. Walkable to Sprouts, Trader Joe's, Ralph's, Dark Horse Coffee, Mostra, & a wealth of other local restaurants & nightspots. Two blocks to public transit; easy access to the Hwy 163, I-5 & I-8 freeways. The 2022 kitchen remodel shines with quartz countertops, integrated smart appliances, built-in wine rack, & pantry cabinet. The sun-drenched living room offers motorized shades & high-efficiency mini-split system. The primary suite features high-efficiency mini-split, en-suite bath with custom shower, seat bidet, and generous closet. A versatile guest suite/office includes a full-sized Murphy bed and motorized shades, plus home is light & bright throughout! Major systems have been updated (2022–2023): electrical, plumbing, new sewer line, tankless water heater, and a whole-home Aquasana filtration system. An assumable solar system keeps energy costs predictable. Outdoors, enjoy two backyard decks with a gas BBQ hookup, built-in fire pit, and retractable sun shade — fully fenced yard with automated irrigation & post-beach rinse shower, plus automatic privacy gate. The detached 1.5-car garage (Lfinished, with gas, electric & water to bldg.) is primed for ADU conversion. Ample parking includes gated tandem driveway + dedicated front spaces, & full laundry room. A rare opportunity in one of San Diego's most walkable, character-rich neighborhoods!
