1928 Spanish-style North Park retreat | Private courtyard | Detached flex suite | Solar | Central A/C Behind a gated Saltillo-tiled courtyard, this 1928 Spanish charmer lives far larger than its 963 sq ft suggests. The courtyard is the heart of it all — sunny, private, and genuinely livable, whether you’re having morning coffee or hosting friends in one of San Diego’s most walkable neighborhoods. The detached flex suite with full bath and mini-split adapts to whatever your life needs right now: guest space, studio, office, or retreat. Inside, coved ceilings, graceful archways, and south-facing picture windows anchor the Spanish character, while the updated kitchen — quartz counters, KitchenAid appliances, 5-burner gas range — makes it effortlessly functional. Both bathrooms are tastefully refreshed, and the bedrooms open directly to the outdoors through French and sliding doors. Solar (assumable lease ~$105/mo), central A/C, tankless water heater, and off-street parking round out the practicality. A block from North Park Rec Center, and steps from the restaurants, coffee and community that make the neighborhood beloved. This one doesn’t just check boxes — it changes how you live.
