Property Description
Dreaming of a little country in Mt. Helix? Let the fragrance of orange blossoms & breathtaking sunrises welcome you home to your private .72-acre paradise in La Mesa. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home blends rustic serenity with modern comfort. Inside, the big bay window opens to the sky, the orchard, and moonrises, while the expansive living room offers wall-to-wall treetop views and pink sunsets. A modern kitchen with 6-burner gas stove flows into the dining room—perfect for gathering family and friends. Step outside to a flourishing orchard of pink lemon, citrus, and avocado trees with room for grapevines. Practicality meets potential with an extra-long driveway, circular concrete drive, RV/boat parking, and two dump stations. The separate rear building with electricity is already a versatile asset—currently perfect for parking or workspace, but with its generous yard frontage, it’s an ideal setup for a future ADU. Beneath the home, discover stand-up storage with shelving—wine cellar, workshop, or creative hub. Add in the art studio and the private downstairs suite with modern bath and its own entrance, and you’ll find the home offers both charm and flexibility. This isn’t just a residence—it’s a lifestyle canvas in the heart of Mt. Helix, with panoramic views of the Peninsular Range, country air, and boundless opportunity.
