Property Description
Rarely available on Mount Helix! This private hillside retreat sits on an oversized 36,154 sq ft lot with sweeping mountain and valley views. The property offers 3 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, with an approx 2,425 sq ft main home, an attached 340 sq ft garage, and a brand new detached 1 bed, 1 bath ADU of approx 450 sq ft built in 2026. The ADU has its own private access and one car parking. A private gate opens to stairs that lead down to a bridge walk, a patio deck, and its own main entrance. Live in one and rent the other, or welcome extended family. The main home features antique San Francisco stained glass, custom cantera stone flooring, 10 ft sliders with custom glass inlays, new flooring, a gas or wood fireplace, two spa tubs, a hidden 300 bottle wine cellar, and a safe built into concrete. The home is efficient, with paid solar, a tankless water heater, central heat and air, and EV charging outlets. Outside are stone driveway columns built from stone found on the property, new slope planting with automated irrigation, a refreshed deck, and a new Precision garage door. Thoughtfully designed and well maintained, it is a rare opportunity on one of San Diego’s most iconic hillsides.
