Walking distance to Collier Park and the shops, restaurants, and energy of downtown La Mesa — this 1945 Craftsman sits just over the border and gives you everything the neighborhood is known for, without the La Mesa premium. The backyard is the headline. Two covered patios, a wood-burning brick fireplace, a Jacuzzi hot tub with outdoor shower, and lush avocado and orange trees create an outdoor space that feels more like a private resort. Inside, original oak hardwood floors, crown molding, solid wood cabinetry, a wood-burning fireplace, and a large formal dining room honor the home's Craftsman character. The kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a tankless water heater. The practical upgrades matter: 13 owned solar panels with EV charging, newer roof, dual-pane windows, finished two-car garage with epoxy floors, and an oversized driveway with RV or boat parking. The real upside is the opportunity. The space behind the garage offers a natural footprint for a detached ADU with its own private entrance — ideal for rental income or multigenerational living. The floorplan also supports conversion to a 3 bed / 2 bath without significantly impacting the yard.
