Newly Remodeled Home in “Hippest Neighborhoods in America”

Newly Remodeled Contemporary in Forbes Magazine’s “Hippest Neighborhoods in America”

San Diego natives have always known where the hot spots are in our county, communities like Cardiff, Ocean Beach and Kensington, but last year Forbes Magazine officially listed North Park as one of the Hippest neighborhoods in America.  Perched on the border of North Park and South Park is one of the coolest properties in town, the newly remodeled  luxury contemporary at 2851 Kalmia.

The expression “one of a kind” is often over-used and cliché,  but this brand new listing truly stands apart from the rest with its breathtaking, unobstructed views of Balboa GC, SD Bay and the downtown skyline.  From the moment you set foot in the door you’re greeted with a stylish open floor plan that draws you out the west facing view deck perfectly suited for entertaining.  One look at the panoramic views and your guests won’t want to leave!

Both inside and out this home exudes character and a coolness that can’t be replicated – from the unique turret design on the west side of the property to the modern interior finishes including wire brushed wood floors, stone mosaic entry landing and wood cased windows.  Dual master suites – one upstairs and one down give the home great functional appeal for a wide range of buyers.  In a neighborhood of generally small lots, this property is unique too for having a huge 1 acre lot that goes from the crescent shaped street at Kalmia all the way down to Balboa Golf Course.  The lower portion of the property offers a series of walkable pathways through the natural vegetation and landscaping.

Dramatic sunsets, stunning nighttime skyline views and just  a chip shot from the golf course – there is no finer setting to call home!  And when it’s time to leave home you’re in neighborhood that offers a wonderful, diverse culture – it is a short walk to cafes and diners, coffee shops, several award winning microbreweries, boutiques, and the North Park Farmers Market.  The North Park Theater and the Ray Street Arts District are also expressions of the creativity in the area.

For the person who wants the ultimate trophy property that fully captures the essence of San Diego living, this is a home not to be missed!
