5760 Urban Drive, La Mesa, CA 91942
Originally designed by AIA architect Edward Fickett, this energy-efficient Ranch-style Mid-Century Modern home blends timeless architecture with thoughtful modern upgrades, with over $200,000 spent on improvements and updates. The home blends timeless character with climate-conscious features including owned solar, dual-pane windows, and a whole-house fan for year-round comfort. The kitchen was updated in 2022 with the intention of preserving the integrity of the original mid-century character and cabinetry. Engineered white oak wood flooring flows through the main living areas. Both bathrooms have been fully renovated including Bertch cabinetry and quality finishes. The bones of a professionally designed landscape were recently installed, offering room for the next garden lover to add their personal touches. The outdoor space features a serene, drought-tolerant landscape incorporating native and climate-adapted plants and fruit trees, complemented by updated hardscape, new shade structure and seating, dry creek bed for rainwater capture, improved drainage and inviting areas to enjoy garden and sunset views. Located in the sought-after Severin Grossmont Hills neighborhood, the home is situated on streets with sidewalks and convenient access to shopping, schools, and the trolley. Just 20 minutes to Downtown San Diego and 30 minutes to the beaches, this property offers a rare blend of architectural character, sustainability, and modern comfort.
