Private, courtyard entry through a centuries-old Italian cypress wood door, reveal the architectural details of this beautiful home in the wonderful community of Talmadge.

Within the decorative wrought iron gates of the Nationally Registered Historic District, Talmadge Park Estates, this contributing home built in 1928 has French door windows flanking the Talavera tile fireplace facade while the large picture window frames the tranquil view into the courtyard. Enjoy expansive sunset views across the mesa top of neighboring Kensington from the deck after adjourning from your entertainer’s sized dining & living rooms. Hardwood & Saltillo tile floors, coved LR ceilings, Art Deco bathroom mirrors & original tile, and Talavera tile backsplash insets align with the old world feel echoing throughout this Spanish style gem. Sets of sliding & French doors provide wonderful indoor/outdoor flow from the primary bedroom, the kitchen adjacent “butler’s pantry” and dining room. Plenty of storage options afforded via hallway built-ins, “walk-in” closets, 2 car garage with high ceiling, and a partial walk-out basement with below deck entrance & wine storage racks. Walk to the local Copley-Price YMCA, find your way over to the neighboring village of Kensington, or enjoy convenient freeway access to local shopping or destinations around the globe from San Diego Intl Airport. **** SIGNIFICANT PRICE IMPROVEMENT and an OUTSTANDING VALUE **** If you are looking for the Spanish Architectural Charm and Character, a Private Courtyard, Views, and Amazing Upgrades like a Newer Foundation and Sewer Drain Lines, all within a Very Spacious 1,400+ Sq.
