Property Description

NOTE: Don't let proximity to 8 fwy throw you! There's a land buffer & noise travels up. See for yourself, it's peaceful here! Visitors agree. Rare Opportunity in La Mesa's Historic Porter Hill! Discover timeless charm in one of La Mesa's most sought-after neighborhoods. The home is situated near the end of the Terrace on the elevated view side, which terminates in a quiet cul-de-sac with paved access path to 22-acre MacArthur Park, just steps from your front door. The park features a dog park, community pool, recreation center, historic Nan Couts Cottage, ball field, and children's playground. Next, take a short stroll into La Mesa Village to enjoy year-round community events, charming local eateries, boutique shops, galleries, and more. Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated, this character-rich gem combines vintage appeal with modern convenience. The remodeled kitchen features solid maple cabinetry, striking polished granite countertops, tile flooring, and brand-new GE and Frigidaire appliances. Natural light fills the home via an abundance of windows and French doors, highlighting the rich oak hardwood floors throughout in all but the beautifully remodeled bathrooms. The primary suite is a spacious retreat with a gorgeously tiled full bathroom, expansive closet space & dual French doors to the back yard! Bedroom 2 is also surprisingly large with an ample 10 ft wide closet and charm galore. Bedroom #3 is currently an office/lounge but has a closet and can easily convert back to a bedroom. I love the vintage interior doors! Comfort is year-round thanks to the 2021 HVAC system and ventwork. Upgrades also include dual-pane windows, fresh interior paint, and ample recessed lighting throughout. (See attached amenities list for full details.) Step outside the dining area to enjoy a spacious view deck and beautifully landscaped, award-winning gardens (recipient of the 2017 La Mesa Beautiful Award). The backyard is a gardener's dream offering shaded peace under the covered patio & alfresco dining area, ample lawn, whimsical seating areas, potting table area &vibrant water-wise plantings--Homes in this historic enclave rarely come on the market--this one hasn't been available in over 40 years. Don't miss this extraordinary opportunity to own a piece of La Mesa's rich history in an unbeatable, community-rich location.
