Property Description
Greetings from Islenair (or Island-in-the Air), a historical district elevated above the canyons of Chollas Creek in a centrally located area of San Diego. Built in 1928, this Spanish Revival home carries a historical contributor designation, granting it a Mills Act classification. This meticulously restored home retains the classic details that exemplified its architectural pedigree, including original crystal-like door knobs, original front door hardware and authentic Charles Batchelder tile on the fireplace hearth, to name a few. As well, the original double hung and casement wood windows have been faithfully restored throughout the home, elevating its legacy for years to come. Modern upgrades blend seamlessly with the original character of this architectural gem. The kitchen and baths have been modernized to today's lifestyle. Locally sourced lighting fixtures from the era are adorned within the home. Additionally, the home features a semi-attached two car garage that features an office space with a half bath and a dedicated laundry room. Multiple private outdoor spaces provide areas for entertainment, relaxation and tranquility from the hustle and bustle of city life. Even with the elevation of its conveniences, you will still feel like you truly stepped into an "Island in the Air". A short distance from Downtown San Diego, Little Italy, and hip areas like North Park and University Heights, this remarkable home presents an opportunity to own a piece of San Diego history.
