Perched high in the coveted Dictionary Hill neighborhood, this custom-built 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom residence captures 270° unobstructed views spanning the Sweetwater Reservoir, Mount Miguel, the Pacific Ocean, and the Coronado Islands. Positioned at the top of a private, scenic driveway ascent, the home offers exceptional privacy while enhancing the dramatic panoramic views. PAID-OFF 15kWh SOLAR System (included with sale, owner paid $30k) provides immediate energy savings, while a VA assumable loan at an exceptional 2.75% interest rate (subject to lender approval) offers a financing opportunity rarely available in today’s market.

Interior features include hardwood and luxury vinyl plank flooring, tastefully tiled bathrooms, a relaxing whirlpool tub, and abundant dual-pane windows that surge the home with natural light. Practical amenities such as under-deck storage for surfboards or kayaks, a dedicated laundry room with oversized utility sink, and an expansive driveway accommodating 3+ vehicles enhance everyday convenience. Pet-friendly yard areas surround the home, while central and portable A/C and heating ensure year-round comfort. (NO HOA | NO Mello Roos!)
