The 2-bedroom, 1-bath home offers 982 sq. ft. with hardwood floors, a vaulted living room ceiling, original doors and hardware, built-in cabinetry, arched details, and a gas fireplace. The kitchen, renovated in 2023, blends seamlessly with the home's character and includes a pantry plumbed for water and equipped with electrical for additional appliances. The updated bathroom features a dual vanity, terracotta tile, and a spacious glass-enclosed shower with rain showerhead, handheld fixture, bench, and arched niche. Outside, an expansive backyard offers a large lawn, mature landscaping and pomegranate tree, covered patio, built-in BBQ and outdoor kitchen, hot tub, and multiple areas to gather and relax. Dedicated RV parking includes 220V power and sewer access, while a detached garage provides additional flexibility. Significant improvements include foundation work in 2022, sewer and chimney work in 2023, attic re-insulation with fire-retardant cellulose, and a gas tankless water heater. Set in El Cerrito, a neighborhood known for its pride of ownership and central San Diego location, with convenient access to nearby shops, dining, parks, and surrounding neighborhoods. A thoughtfully cared-for home that celebrates its 1929 Spanish roots while offering modern comfort and an exceptional San Diego outdoor lifestyle.
