Classic San Diego Living Meets Modern Comfort in North Park. Welcome to 3242 McKinley Street, a beautifully updated 2-bedroom, 1-bath home perched on an elevated corner lot in the heart of Altadena — one of North Park’s most desirable neighborhoods. Built in 1943, this home offers the best of classic San Diego: cool ocean breezes, vintage charm, and walkable living — all paired with thoughtful modern upgrades. Step inside to original, freshly retextured plaster walls, refinished hardwood floors, and natural light throughout. Recent improvements include new electrical wiring, recessed lighting, stylish fixtures, fresh interior and exterior paint, a new furnace, and a new water heater. The kitchen is anchored by a premium Viking gas cooktop and oven, ideal for home chefs. A premium Bosch 8000 dishwasher, just two years new, adds both efficiency and elegance to the space. Outside, enjoy low-maintenance landscaping with mature privacy hedges, a stately shade tree, and plenty of space for outdoor dining or relaxing under the San Diego sun. A one-car garage adds convenience and storage. Located just blocks from McKinley Elementary and close to all the best shops, restaurants, and parks North Park has to offer — this home is move-in ready and full of possibilities.
