Property Description

Welcome to this beautifully updated, turn-key ranch-style home nestled on a generous 0.86 acre lot, where thoughtful upgrades, quality craftsmanship, and exceptional outdoor living come together. Meticulously maintained and extensively improved over the years, this home offers true move-in readiness and long-term peace of mind. In 2019, the interior was transformed with all-new KitchenAid appliances, including an extra-large built-in refrigerator, wall-mounted oven and microwave, five-burner cooktop, dishwasher, and trash compactor. The kitchen was further enhanced with new granite countertops, a stylish backsplash, freshly painted cabinetry, and brand-new real hardwood flooring throughout the home, complemented by new tile flooring in the laundry room. The entire interior was professionally painted using high-quality Dunn-Edwards paint, and finished with elegant 5-inch solid wood baseboards and quarter round throughout. Outdoor living shines with a stunning approximately 3,000-gallon koi pond added in 2020, complete with a 6,000-gallon-per-hour Aqua Ultraviolet Ultima filtration system, creating a peaceful, retreat-like atmosphere. In 2022, a powerful owned 30-panel, 12kW solar system was installed, offering energy efficiency with no lease attached. Additional improvements include new sod in the backyard (2022) and front yard (2024), along with all-new front-yard drainage. Major system upgrades were completed in 2024, including a new American Standard HVAC system with all new supply and return ducting, fresh exterior paint, and the installation of sleek 5-inch round seamless matte black rain gutters and downspouts. The primary bathroom was refreshed with all new Moen shower fixtures, adding a modern touch. A hot water tank was replaced in 2025, while a tankless water heater was added in 2020 for enhanced efficiency. The spacious backyard is ideal for entertaining, relaxing, or enjoying quiet evenings surrounded by mature landscaping and soothing water features. Approximately 600 SF of space on the backside of the garage is perfect to convert to ADU/apartment or workshop to suit your needs. Two dedicated RV parking spaces provide rare and valuable flexibility for recreational vehicles, boats, or additional parking needs. Leave the car at home and meander to The Village in La Mesa to enjoy cafes, boutiques, schools, the Copley-Price YMCA, public transportation and entertainment venues. With its extensive upgrades, serene outdoor spaces, and versatile layout, this exceptional ranch home offers comfort, style, and lasting value.
