Property Description

Welcome to this beautifully updated 1929 bungalow located in the highly sought-after University Heights neighborhood—known for its walkable streets, vibrant local eateries, independent coffee shops, boutique shopping, and easy access to North Park, Normal Heights, and Hillcrest. This turnkey 2BR/1BA home blends classic charm with modern style in one of San Diego’s most popular metro communities. Step inside to a bright, inviting living area featuring gorgeous original hardwood floors, fresh interior paint, and a striking fireplace accented with a modern black finish and a crisp quartz surround. Updated lighting, ceiling fans, and hardware in contemporary black-and-gold tones elevate the home’s cohesive design. The renovated kitchen offers shaker-style cabinetry, sleek quartz countertops with subtle veining, stainless steel appliances, and a charming breakfast nook perfect for morning coffee. The refreshed bathroom includes updated tile flooring, stylish wainscoting, modern fixtures, and a tiled tub/shower surround. Both bedrooms provide comfortable spaces for rest or work-from-home flexibility. The low-maintenance yard features new landscaping and clean, modern accents, and the property includes a 1-car garage with alley access. A rare opportunity to own a thoughtfully modernized historic home in one of San Diego’s most walkable, community-oriented neighborhoods.
