About this home
Historic masterpiece in Mission Hills. Faithfully restored 1917 Prairie landmark built by master builder Nathan Rigdon. Rich in San Diego heritage, this Mills Act 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom residence seamlessly blends timeless Craftsman artistry with high-end modern upgrades. This significant home is on one of the best streets in Mission Hills. The home welcomes you with a classic full-width porch set above the street. Inside, discover pristine quarter-sawn oak flooring, octagonal oak columns, coved ceilings in oak, oak beams and mullion pocket doors. There are Craftsman fixtures throughout, period fireplace tile, and an oak-paneled dining room complete with a stunning built-in china cabinet and period fixture. The Craftsman kitchen features green granite countertops and serves as a natural gathering spot for guests and family. The spacious living room leads into an inviting family room and out to a charming sunroom that opens to a Tuscan Villa-inspired walled courtyard. This outdoor space is remarkable and visually arresting. It represents the best of indoor-outdoor living, featuring a vine-covered al fresco dining area, a spacious sunny garden built for entertaining, drought-resistant landscaping, teak gates, mature olive trees, serene fountains, and a gas firepit. Solar panels, three tankless water heaters, and significant Mills Act property tax savings make this home as practical as it is beautiful. A custom finished garage built in 2007 offers alley access, epoxy floors, full cabinetry, wine and full-sized refrigerators, sink, ceiling fans, and a 220V EV charger.
