A Restored Piece of History in the Heart of University Heights. There’s something special about a Craftsman home. The way it feels. The way it tells a story before you even step inside. Welcome to 4515 Louisiana Street, a lovingly restored Craftsman tucked along a quiet street in historic University Heights. This home has a historic designation and is a contributor in the Melhorn & Son Historic District. This isn’t just a remodel. It’s a revival. With a Mills Act Agreement with the City of San Diego, this home stands to save the owners tens of thousands of dollars each year in property taxes an opportunity to steward history while enjoying meaningful financial benefit.
