Welcome to this beautiful La Mesa home, uniquely situated on two parcels at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac and just a 6-minute walk to La Mesa's bustling downtown! A generous driveway offers parking for 10-15 vehicles with a separate 4-car garage. Step into your formal entryway with beautiful wood-beamed ceilings and saltillo tile floors. This home's eclectic style pulls from all the best interior design genres to blend seamlessly into a wonderful curated experience. Off the entryway, the family room is drenched in natural lighting pouring in from all sides from multiple new oversized windows throughout. Wood beam ceilings, original refinished wood floors, and a gas fireplace add to the charm and coziness of the room. A newly remodeled kitchen has plenty of counter space for entertaining, loads of storage options, and newer appliances for peace of mind. A small breakfast room or optional office space is off the kitchen while a formal dining room is on the opposite end of the kitchen with expansive windows capturing the elevated city views. Step out onto your beautifully appointed patio to relax and entertain from sun up to sun down. Shared on this same floor are two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The primary bedroom offers wood-beamed ceilings again as well as a large-sized closet. Head downstairs and you will find a secondary living room with an attached bathroom, a large oversized 3rd bedroom, a dedicated laundry room and flex space. This floor would make for a wonderful primary retreat with some changes OR as a completely separate unit. The home's grounds have been painstakingly redone to offer full usage of the extensive property. Paver driveway, retaining walls, outdoor lighting, artificial turf, and low-water landscaping have all been done within the past year. Also in the past 4 years, the home has had all-new roofing, painted inside and out, sewer lining, electrical upgrades, water filtration, dual pane windows, HVAC system, and appliances. Solar is fully paid for as well!
