Description
**CHARMING PRIMARY RESIDENCE WITH DETACHED GUEST HOUSE FOR ADDITIONAL PASSIVE INCOME OPPORTUNITY** Essentially two residences in one! Experience the perfect balance of peaceful living and modern convenience with a MAIN HOUSE and a GUEST HOUSE tucked away in the serene Crest community. Rebuilt in 2004 with thoughtful attention to detail, each home has their own entrance and yard space making it the ideal place for multi-generational living or short-term/long-term rental without invading each other's space. This charming Cape Cod-inspired 3 bedroom plus bonus room, 2.5 bath PLUS a guest house offers a quiet, relaxed lifestyle while keeping you connected to it all—just minutes from Grossmont Center, top schools, dining, and with effortless access to major freeways for easy commuting across San Diego. The main single-level home features an airy open-concept design, soaring 10-foot ceilings, and abundant natural light throughout. Offering 3 spacious bedrooms plus a versatile bonus room, and 2.5 bathrooms, the layout is designed for everyday comfort and effortless entertaining. The kitchen is a true heart of the home, with stainless steel appliances, warm wood cabinetry, and a center island perfect for gatherings. The primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with a walk-in closet and an ensuite bathroom featuring a walk-in shower. Adding incredible flexibility, the detached 1-bedroom, 1-bath guest house—complete with its own kitchen, private laundry, HVAC system, and water heater—is ideal for extended family, rental income, or a quiet work-from-home sanctuary. Sitting on an oversized 11,000+ square foot lot, the outdoor space invites you to dream big—whether that's cultivating a lush garden, hosting summer dinners under the stars, or simply relaxing in your private oasis. Adventure is nearby too, with hiking, biking, and horseback riding trails just around the corner. Enjoy the best of both worlds—peaceful, private living with the convenience of city amenities just a short drive away. Move-in ready and brimming with opportunity, this home is perfect for multi-generational living, an income-producing property, or simply your forever home to grow into. Properties like this are rare—schedule your private tour today and discover the lifestyle waiting for you!
