Originally BUILT IN 1953 THIS charming MEDITERRANEAN-style APARTMENT COMPLEX SITS just THREE BLOCKS FROM THE BEACH.  PURCHASED by the current owners IN 1974, The PROPERTY hOLDS decades of cherished FAMILY MEMORIES.  OVER TIME, HOWEVER, YEARS OF NEGLECT LEFT IT IN DISREPAIR — facing sIGNIFICANT code compliance issues and in need of a full-scale DESIGN renovation.

now based in north san diego county, the owners rarely visited THE PROPERTY and AT ONE POINT considered selling.  FOLLOWING a complete transformation of BOTH the building and landscape, they not only chose to keep IT, buT retained one of the FOUR units for family getaways and guests.  tODAY THEY visit OFTEN, and extended family members REGULARLY enjoy the space as well.

the renovation openED walls to create bright, open-concept living spaces anchored by THOUGHTFULLY DESIGNED CookS' kitchens in every unit.  the two ground-floor units were enhanced with new French doors leading to private backyard RETREATS, COMPLETE WITH custom decks and stairs.  landscape design IMPROVEMENTS prioritized safety and low maintenance INCORPORATING drought-tolerant plants and decomposed granite.  FINALLY, sleek new garage doors added both function and curb appeal, completing the revival of this beloved family PROPERTY.
