Property is move-in ready.
The property is move-in ready and shows pride of ownership with several key updates. While built in 1990, it features a newer roof, tankless water heater, and updated wood-look flooring. The kitchen has been refreshed with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, and the interior benefits from vaulted ceilings and modern paint. It avoids a 'fair' rating due to the lack of deferred maintenance and the presence of major system upgrades, though it falls short of 'excellent' as it is not a brand-new construction or a total contemporary gut-renovation.
Elementary School: Kumeyaay Elementary School (9/10).
The property features no rear neighbors and stunning skyline sunset views, offering a rare level of tranquility and privacy within the Tierrasanta community.
With a newer roof, fresh exterior paint, updated flooring, and a tankless water heater, the home offers reduced maintenance concerns and enhanced long-term value for the buyer.
The 3,683-square-foot lot is relatively modest, which may restrict outdoor recreational space or future structural expansions compared to other suburban San Diego properties.
At a list price of $1.289M for 1,707 square feet, the property commands a high price-per-square-foot, which may challenge buyers looking for more interior living space at this budget.
Tucked into one of Tierrasanta’s most peaceful pockets, this light-filled home offers the rare combination of privacy, views, and everyday ease. With no rear neighbors and open skyline sunsets, the backyard becomes a quiet retreat after long days. Inside, vaulted ceilings and abundant windows create an airy, calming feel, while the flexible 3BR + loft layout adapts to evolving needs, whether a home office, media space, or guest area. Thoughtful upgrades including newer roof, flooring, exterior paint, and tankless water heater reduce future maintenance and add long-term confidence. Ideally located near Mission Trails, major freeways, and top employment centers, this home delivers central access without the noise. A rare opportunity for those seeking space, privacy, and a home that simply works as life gets busier. Homes with this level of privacy and setting rarely come available in this pocket of Tierrasanta.
