PRIVATE PRESERVE RETREAT IN DESIRABLE NORTHWEST MIRA MESA! Nestled on a quiet cul-de-sac, just moments from Rancho Peñasquitos Canyon Preserve and easy biking distance to Sorrento Valley's world-class biotech and technology corridor, this beautifully refreshed California Contemporary offers a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, and exceptional convenience. Backing to protected open space with no rear neighbors or homes overlooking the backyard, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers approximately 1,500 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, crowned by an expansive 720-square-foot great room. A wall of oversized kitchen windows blurs the boundary between indoors and out, framing the private backyard and protected open space beyond in a living panorama of trees, sky, and native wildlife. Refreshing coastal canyon breezes, exceptional privacy, and ever-changing preserve views create a setting that is rarely found in the heart of the city. Energy-saving leased solar with an approximately $144 monthly contract has historically kept SDG&E electric charges minimal, providing predictable monthly energy expenditure. The private backyard is designed for relaxation with an inviting pool, spa, and beautifully illuminated evening ambiance. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully refreshed in 2026 with a brand-new roof, new 200-amp electrical subpanel, fresh interior and exterior paint, new flooring throughout, sparkling updated bathrooms, coordinated dimmable lighting, a stunning white quartz linear gas fireplace, and a beautifully updated kitchen featuring leathered quartz countertops, a workstation sink, mobile island, designer finishes, a brand-new range, sleek low-profile microwave, newer Bosch dishwasher, and Gallery refrigerator. Additional improvements include newer pool equipment, newer water heater, newer pressure regulator, abundant interior storage, an interior laundry room, embossed two-panel doors, upgraded woodwork throughout, and a finished two-car garage with built-in cabinetry and shelving. Located near award-winning Sandburg Elementary, minutes from shopping, dining, hiking, parks, and convenient freeway access, with San Diego's world-class beaches just a short drive away, this home offers an exceptional lifestyle in one of San Diego's most peaceful and picturesque settings.
