Description

This is a home that needs to be experienced in person. It has a presence from the moment you arrive, and when the front door opens, the view takes over. Photos and video can show the views, but they simply can’t capture what it feels like to experience them in person. Set at the top of the hill in highly coveted Bay Park, on an unusually wide and peaceful stretch of Tokalon Street with no through traffic, this impeccably cared-for home occupies one of the neighborhood’s peak vantage points. Sweeping west-facing 180-degree views stretch across Mission Bay to the Pacific Ocean, Point Loma, Mount Soledad and the San Diego coastline, with sunsets and SeaWorld fireworks over the bay at night. That setting follows you through the home, with views seemingly around every corner. Expansive multi-panel sliding glass doors open the living room directly to the main deck, creating a natural indoor-outdoor connection and making the outdoors feel like an extension of the living space. The expansive deck offers plenty of room to gather, dine or unwind alongside the fire pit, in-ground spa and water feature. A private front courtyard with a privacy wall and double-gated entrance, along with a separate side yard, creates additional spaces to entertain or retreat. Inside, the updated kitchen features premium appliances, a convection oven and a separate island prep sink, while hardwood floors and a gas fireplace add warmth throughout. Dual-pane windows, skylights and solar tubes bring in abundant natural light. Recent improvements include central air and furnace, water heater, appliances and leased solar. The property extends well down the hillside at the rear of the home, providing an added degree of control and protection of the view, while offering possibilities for future expansion or use. For all its privacy and peacefulness, the home is remarkably central to San Diego, with easy access to Mission Bay, the beaches, Downtown, the airport, major freeways and destinations throughout the city. The setting, the space and especially the view simply need to be experienced in person.
