Welcome to one of Hillcrest’s most captivating Spanish Colonial Revival homes, just moments from Balboa Park and the San Diego Zoo. From the street, this home stops you in your tracks with its terra cotta barrel tile roof, ornate parapet detailing, arched entryway, and lush drought-tolerant front garden bursting with color and texture. Inside, the warmth continues with well-maintained hardwood floors and thoughtfully preserved architectural details throughout, including windows replaced by a specialized historic preservation company honoring the home’s original character. The private backyard is a true sanctuary, lush and serene with raised garden beds, mature trees, and a rare fruiting quince tree that sets this property apart from anything else on the market. A separate unit above the garage provides an ideal space for guests, extended family, or rental income, all while the main residence lives and feels like a single family home. A rare opportunity to own a piece of Hillcrest history with income potential built in. Floor plans available.
