A thoughtfully designed 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home in Mount Helix that balances comfort, flexibility, and indoor-outdoor living. Inside, the split-bedroom layout creates natural separation—ideal for a home office, playroom, or long-term guests without sacrificing privacy. The kitchen opens to an oversized dining space built for real gatherings, not just everyday meals. The living room centers around a fireplace that makes the space feel grounded and inviting. All bedrooms are generously sized, and the primary suite delivers with a substantial walk-in closet and room to truly spread out. Step outside and the property shifts into retreat mode: a flat grassy yard, expansive covered deck, pergola lounge area, and potential outdoor kitchen setup already wired for additional electrical—ready for whatever upgrades you envision. Fruit trees line the side yard, adding character and function. In a location that consistently holds long-term value, this Mount Helix home offers space to live now and flexibility to grow into. Fully paid off solar, new kitchen appliances, a whole house water softener system, and much more complete this home. A rare opportunity to own a private hillside escape in one of San Diego’s most desirable communities.
