What This House Offers
Privacy and Proximity, Why Settle?
Welcome to life in Normal Heights, where a walk down Adams Avenue means antique shops, local coffee roasters, and some of San Diego's best gastropubs, all just minutes from your front door.
This 2-bedroom, 1-bath single family home at 4778 W Mountain View Drive gives you something rare for the neighborhood: real privacy on a lot with room to spread out. The
kitchen and bath have been fully remodeled, so you get updated finishes throughout without sacrificing the character that makes this pocket of San Diego special. Tired of driving around looking for street parking? Your private driveway gives you two tandem parking spaces!
As you approach the front door you are welcomed by a tree covered front patio, perfect for coffee and reading. Fast forward to the backyard for a rare private outdoor space perfect for unwinding peacefully in the evening but large enough to entertain friends and family comfortably. This home brings you two distinct outdoor spaces. There is also dedicated gardening space for anyone who wants to grow their own, plus two extra onsite storage spaces to keep life organized.
What makes this home stand out is the balance. You are close enough to walk to Adams Avenue for dinner or a Saturday coffee run, but the home itself feels tucked away and private, not stacked on top of the street. That combination is hard to find in this part of town.
