Truly charming and the perfect jumping-off point, this Hillcrest home in the craftsman style has everything you want in an investment or full-time living enterprise in gorgeous San Diego. Look closely at its stately front porch stoop from a bygone era, its hardwood original flooring, picture windows, clever layout, vintage sconces and lighting details, and especially, its extra-deep lot. Pay careful attention to this special location, huge backyard space, and this position that enjoys so much privacy and potential, perched just right against the natural setting of the creek and canyon portions that wind through our still wild hills. This home has already been updated to include decking off the kitchen, but there is room for so much more. Perhaps off the master bedroom? Perhaps with an additional dwelling unit? Perhaps both. You may opt to make smart use of the basement area as well. Parking is also ample as your private driveway stretches nearly to the back of the house and lot. Walk to dining, arts, entertainment, gyms and more. A very fine place to be.
