About this home

Seller is willing to consider a buyer finance credit. Plus, the option to live in one space and rent out the other to help offset your housing expenses makes this a smart and flexible path to homeownership! Finding a home in San Diego at this price point with two separate living areas, each with its own entrance, is a rare opportunity, especially one with this much character. Cape Cod-inspired charm meets Southern California living in this beautifully renovated La Mesa property. For investors, enjoy the potential for two income streams, or take advantage of multigenerational living while keeping family close. The main level features two bedrooms and one full bath, along with a spacious kitchen, dining area, and inviting living room that opens to a deck with beautiful views. Downstairs offers its own private entrance, one bedroom, one full bath, a beautifully finished kitchen, and a generous living room. Outside, a welcoming covered front porch and picturesque white picket fence add to the home's curb appeal. The location is hard to beat! Just steps from the shops, restaurants, and vibrant atmosphere of historic La Mesa Village, near the beloved La Mesa Secret Stairs, and conveniently close to highly sought-after Helix Charter High School. A unique opportunity to enjoy the best of La Mesa living!
