About this home
Welcome to 10810 Fuerte Drive, nestled in the desirable Mt. Helix area of La Mesa! This charming 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom single-family home offers approximately 1,600 square feet of living space on a generous 10,900-square-foot lot. Surrounded by lush greenery, mature landscaping, and a peaceful, garden-like setting, the property offers a sense of privacy and natural beauty. The expansive grounds create an inviting atmosphere with plenty of space to relax, enjoy the outdoors, or bring your own landscaping vision to life. Built in 1952, this home offers character and an excellent opportunity to add your personal touch. The existing garage provides additional space for storage rather than vehicle parking. The property offers two convenient access points: an entrance from Fuerte featuring a protected driveway plus a separate parking space, as well as a quiet, easily accessible entrance from Calavo. A lockable gate at the Calavo entrance opens to an additional driveway and a structure with potential to be restored as a functional garage. Select plumbing updates and a septic system reported to be in good condition add to the property’s appeal. Situated in an established residential neighborhood with convenient access to shopping, dining, schools, and the amenities of La Mesa, this property offers a rare combination of outdoor space, charm, and potential. Come discover the possibilities of this Mt. Helix retreat!
