This 1916 Craftsman bungalow has been fully renovated down to the studs, seamlessly blending original architectural details like mahogany doors and hardwood floors with modern essential upgrades including new plumbing, electrical, and central HVAC.
Situated on a private cul-de-sac in the heart of San Diego, the property offers exceptional walkability to South Park and Golden Hill amenities, with convenient access to Balboa Park and top-rated charter schools.
With only one bathroom serving the entire home, the layout may be a drawback for buyers or small families seeking more convenience and privacy at this price point.
The 3,261-square-foot lot is relatively small, which limits outdoor recreational space and may restrict future expansion possibilities or the addition of an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU).
