    What's special

    This exquisitely preserved 1924 Spanish Eclectic home offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of San Diego’s design heritage. Created by celebrated architects Ralph Hurlburt and Charles Tifal, the residence blends old-world craftsmanship with modern luxury in the coveted Bankers Hill neighborhood. Inside, sunlight pours through generous windows, illuminating rich hardwood floors, arched doorways, and intricate period details. The main level is both gracious and functional, featuring a spacious living room, formal dining room, chef’s kitchen, inviting family room, and dedicated laundry—ideal for everyday living and effortless entertaining. Upstairs, all bedrooms include ensuite baths, and the expansive primary suite offers a tranquil sitting room. The outdoor spaces are designed for true California living. On the main level, enjoy a sunken spa, waterfall, steam room, fire pit, and vibrant greenery that create a private setting equally suited to quiet reflection or lively gatherings. A connected upper deck offers additional lounge areas for sunbathing, unwinding, or hosting guests beneath an open sky. Thoughtful updates—including a reinforced foundation, new electrical system, upgraded spa equipment, fresh interior paint, reimagined landscaping, and custom lighting that transforms the property after dark—ensure that the home is as dependable as it is beautiful. Located just steps from the iconic Spruce Street Suspension Bridge and minutes from Balboa Park, this one-of-a-kind property offers timeless elegance, modern comfort, and an enviable location in the heart of San Diego.
