Description

Craftsman charm meets walkable urban living. Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in Mission Hills’ sought-after Bird Streets, this 1911 Craftsman pairs timeless character with everyday convenience. Just 1–2 blocks from favorite neighborhood spots—restaurants, bars, cafés, and shops—you’re perfectly positioned to enjoy an active, walkable lifestyle while still surrounded by peaceful, all-residential charm. Inside, original hardwood floors, wood beams, and built-ins celebrate the home’s early 20th-century craftsmanship. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the living room, leading naturally into the dining area with its classic built-in buffet and beamed ceiling. In the kitchen, sleek Caesarstone counters, stainless appliances, and eco-friendly LED lighting blend historic warmth with modern updates, opening to a cozy, sun-filled bonus room overlooking the garden. The detached guest house—refreshed with new flooring and paint two years ago—adds a full bedroom, bath, and additional storage, offering the flexibility for guests, work, or creative space. Between the two structures, a bright patio creates a private outdoor retreat ideal for morning coffee or evening gatherings. With a newer foundation (2009), radiant floor heating, off-street parking, and available plans for an 800 sq. ft. addition, this home is rich with both history and potential—all in one of San Diego’s most walkable, character-filled neighborhoods.
