Perched in one of South Park's most iconic and picturesque neighborhoods, this exceptional 1926 Spanish Revival captures the timeless elegance and character that define one of San Diego's most beloved historic communities. Rich in architectural detail, the home showcases graceful arches, red clay tile accents, and inviting indoor-outdoor spaces that embrace Southern California living. Designed for everyday comfort and effortless entertaining, it features two fireplaces—including a rebuilt gas and wood-burning fireplace in the family room—a gourmet kitchen with soapstone countertops and a handmade Italian tile backsplash, plus light-filled living spaces with many new windows that open to multiple terraces and lush outdoor retreats. The 466-square-foot lower-level bonus space offers endless possibilities as a home office, fitness studio, media room, guest retreat, or ADU-inspired flex space. Upstairs, there's a rare opportunity to create a luxurious primary suite by adding a bathroom, enhancing both lifestyle and long-term value. Major updates include a new furnace (2024), newer AC, and roof. Just moments from South Park's popular cafés, award-winning restaurants, boutique shopping, Balboa Park, and year-round neighborhood events, this home offers an exceptional walkable lifestyle where historic charm meets modern convenience.
