About This Property

Incredible panoramic western sunset views and a walkable location-steps from dining, shops, parks, farmers markets, and community events in Downtown La Mesa-are only the beginning of what this home offers. From the water-wise landscaping to the solid mahogany entry, every detail reflects intention, craftsmanship, and pride. Inside, warmth and character define the home. Upstairs, crown moulding, custom wainscoting, and diagonal hardwood floors create a timeless feel. The kitchen features custom shaker cabinetry, quartzite countertops, an oak butcher-block island, Bosch appliances, a copper farmhouse sink, a walk-in pantry, and designer lighting. The upgraded balcony, finished with porcelain tile and cable railings, provides a peaceful place to unwind. The upper bath brings spa-inspired comfort with pebble flooring, an Italian vessel sink, a custom concrete countertop, and Tommy Bahama glass tile. Downstairs, luxury vinyl plank and upgraded moulding continue the cohesive design. The primary suite includes a freestanding soaking tub, walk-in shower, marble flooring, backlit mirrors, and a walk-in closet. Utility spaces are equally thoughtful, featuring a mahogany-appointed laundry/mud room, a fireclay sink, and additional storage in both the semi-finished attic and crawl space. Modern upgrades include owned solar, 200-amp service, a tankless water heater, and newer HVAC. The expansive lot offers space for gardens, outdoor dining, or potential ADU exploration. With a garage and extra driveway parking, the home is ready for guests, hobbies, and comfortable everyday living.
