There is something to be said for a home that has been well cared for over the years. A home with good bones, generous space, and the opportunity to make it your own. Welcome to 5876 Cowles Mountain Boulevard. Situated in an established La Mesa neighborhood, this four-bedroom, two-bath home offers approximately 1,729 square feet of living space on a generous 8,300-square-foot lot. It's the kind of property that offers something increasingly valuable: room to live comfortably today, with the freedom to dream about tomorrow. The home has been meticulously maintained, and while the kitchen retains it's original character, it has had ongoing upgrades and appliance updates. Four bedrooms provide flexibility for guests, a home office, hobbies, or simply having a little extra space. Outside, the generous lot offers outdoor entertaining, gardening, or creating a backyard retreat. A two-car garage adds convenience and storage. And then there's the location. With Cowles Mountain, Lake Murray, parks, shopping, and restaurants nearby, you're surrounded by many of the things that make living in this part of San Diego so appealing. You can make changes over time, but you can't create a larger lot or move a home to a location you love. The opportunity isn't simply to purchase a house, but to create a home you'll love for years to come. Located in the Cowles Mountain community and just minutes from Lake Murray, this central location is close to the 8, 15, 125, and 5 freeways. Many upgrades and improvements reflect pride of ownership and attention of detailed maintenance (Fully owned solar, two living spaces, new flooring, sewer)... this property is move-in ready to make it your own! Improvements include: Upgraded sewer, newer HVAC, upgraded electrical, windows recently replaced, paid solar, newer hot water heater, upgraded bathrooms, and new furnace. CRMLS 260026325
