Description
If privacy, convenience and remarkable panoramic views are important to you, you will appreciate the elevated location of this single-story 3BR 2.5BA 1,966 sq ft home on a 6,000 sq ft lot in Serra Mesa. Lovingly named by the seller "Casa Nubes," this well-maintained Spanish-style residence is equipped with owned solar panels and offers timeless character and strong curb appeal. Pride of long-term ownership is evident through decades with the same family and extensive remodeling and expansion completed in 2011/12. Interior highlights include vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, numerous skylights, custom built-ins, wood accents, beautiful tile and LVP flooring, a statement chandelier in the foyer, a fireplace in the living room and an oversized media room with flexible use options. The kitchen offers dark-colored cabinetry, custom-made tile flooring and seamlessly flows into the dining and living areas. A dining alcove featuring a Spanish-style built-in cabinet, custom matching furnishings and decorative wall tile creates a distinctive focal point. The private low-maintenance east-facing backyard with several citrus-producing trees captures morning light and provides afternoon shade, creating an ideal setting for relaxation, family gatherings and entertaining. A BBQ area, pool, outdoor shower and a deck above the covered patio with a custom chimney enhance the outdoor living experience. Additional highlights include central A/C and heating, a Rinnai tankless water heater and an attached 2-car garage with epoxy flooring, built-in cabinets, washer and dryer and a utility sink. The home is conveniently located in Serra Mesa near Mission Valley and offers quick access to I-8, I-15, I-805 and SR-163. It is minutes from SDSU, USD, Snapdragon Stadium, beaches, downtown San Diego, shopping, dining and major hospitals.
