About this single-family home
The Alfred Mitchell Residence & Studio is a treasure trove with unparalleled Provenance. This property has been historically designated and has the Mills Act in place for reduced property taxes. “Deep Hearth” was designed by Richard S. Requa as an art studio and residence for the renowned San Diego Painter, Alfred Mitchell, and the plans for the property were actually drafted by a young Lloyd Ruocco. According to Friends of San Diego Architecture, “Lloyd Ruocco was arguably San Diego’s most influential modernist architect.” Local artist, James Tank Porter, created the many handmade bronze decorative details throughout this home. Features of this South Park property include hardwood floors, fireplace, gorgeous windows with abundant natural light, elegant bathrooms, Venetian style walls, hand made porcelain mosaic floor in the hall bathroom, French doors, built-in cabinets, & a Mitsubishi AC/Heater split. This property embraces an active Southern California lifestyle with its corner location, lush gardens, tranquil meditation paths, built-in barbecue, herb garden, backyard fountain, pond, and an outdoor shower with handmade copper & steel screen made by a local artist. There is also a 2 car garage with an adjacent studio/workshop. Architectural plans and a movable sculpture which is thought to be designed by Alfred Mitchell are to convey with the property. The kitchen, some interior trim and exterior windows have been recently painted. Recent upgrades include the Mitsubishi AC/heater split, garage doors, fountain/pond pump, washer, & dryer. A short stroll to everything that is South Park…morning coffee, incredible restaurants, trendy breweries, Downtown San Diego, and world famous Balboa Park with its rich cultural heritage and stunning gardens.
