Tucked away in a picturesque Mt. Helix setting, this super charming, move-in ready home sits on a huge, flat, completely usable lot-a rare find offering endless possibilities. An inviting front porch welcomes you inside to a light-filled living room featuring a large picture window, beamed ceiling, and cozy fireplace, creating the perfect space to gather and unwind. Blending vintage character with thoughtful updates, the home features a remodeled kitchen with newer cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and an adjoining dining room. The floor plan includes a comfortable primary suite, a guest bedroom and bath, and an enclosed patio that provides a flexible space for a home office, playroom, or laundry area.

Helix location, close to top-rated schools, parks, Grossmont Center, charming Downtown La Mesa shops and restaurants, and easy freeway and trolley access-perfect for enjoying East County living at its best.
