Description

Presenting Craig Ellwood's Bobertz House. Designed in 1953 and built in 1955, this is a quintessential mid-century modern home. Lovingly restored by its previous owner. You'll feel transported to another time when you enter. From the tongue-and-groove ceilings, the floor to ceiling windows & redwood panelling; it's truly spectacular. Sitting on almost a half acre lot, the outside living spaces are divine. Owned solar, new roof, low maintenance landscaping with room for kids & animals alike.

You'll feel transported to another time when you enter. From the tongue-and-groove ceilings, the floor to ceiling windows & redwood panelling; it's truly spectacular. Sitting on almost a half acre lot, the outside living spaces are divine. Owned solar, new roof, low maintenance landscaping with room for kids & animals alike. If you appreciate post war architecture - or know someone that does - this is a jewel. Truly a needle in a haystack and a stand alone in this part of town. Complete privacy, serene setting and views. All while being able to walk to the trolley, coffee, Trader Joe's & restaurants. This area of San Diego allows for easy access to all we have to offer. 15 minutes will have you sitting on the sand, arriving at the airport, enjoying the SD Zoo and Balboa Park. Truly a rare find.
