Step outside from the main living areas and you will find a resort-caliber backyard anchored by a gas-heated in-ground pool, multiple outdoor gathering areas shaded by mature trees, and sweeping canyon views that carry across the tree line the kind of San Diego indoor-outdoor living that buyers from Los Angeles, the Bay Area, and Seattle consistently name as the single feature that finalizes their relocation decision. The fully fenced 0.57-acre lot provides rare privacy: no neighboring structure is visible from the pool deck or canyon-view terrace, making this backyard a genuinely private retreat within one of San Diego's most walkable and culturally vibrant urban neighborhoods. The lower level delivers versatility in every direction a spacious family entertainment room, a wine room with custom racking, and a sunlit bonus sunroom equally suited as a home gym, art studio, yoga space, or private office for the remote-working buyer relocating from a higher-cost metro. Most significantly, the lower level houses a fully private income-producing ADU-style suite with its own spacious bedroom, full bathroom, kitchenette, and dedicated separate exterior entrance a self-sufficient unit ready to generate rental income to offset carrying costs, host extended family with complete privacy, or operate as a short-term rental in the heart of 92116.

The property is zoned for Franklin Elementary School, Lewis Middle School, and Patrick Henry High School all within San Diego Unified School District and within 0.6 miles of the front door.
