Find Out What Your Home Is Really Worth!

A Normal Heights Time Capsule, Preserved… Upgraded… and Impossible to Find Twice WHAT WE LOVE: Homes like this rarely raise their hand. This is the Normal Heights home people dream about, the early-era cottage footprint from the trolley-car days, still carrying every ounce of charm that built this neighborhood’s identity. Original small-plank oak floors, the warm bungalow vibe, and that front-yard/back-yard simplicity that made this pocket timeless. Add modern comfort, a bonus bedroom, and the unicorn garage, and you’ve got the lifestyle everyone wants but almost nobody finds. Perfection inside and out, from HVAC splits, upgraded to kitchen and bath and all the normal heights vibes that make walkable 92116 so desirable! WHAT WE LOVE (CONT…): Step into a true Normal Heights classic… a home that grew up alongside the old trolley line, when this neighborhood was forming its first blocks and its first families. The cottage architecture still shines from the street, framed by greenery and the familiar rhythm of walkable, community-driven living that defines this pocket. Inside, the original small-plank red or white oak floors run through the living space and primary bedroom, the kind of authentic detail you simply can’t recreate. Dual-pane windows, recessed lighting, integrated ceiling speakers, clean crown molding, and medium-profile baseboards bring a level of finish that elevates the charm without erasing its soul. The kitchen is updated with shaker cabinets and a complementary flooring style that ties the spaces together. The bonus back bedroom, likely added in a later chapter of the home’s life, delivers the flexibility buyers crave… a nursery, a guest room, a work-from-home zone, or a creative studio. The bathroom sits on the elevated wing with matching flooring and tasteful improvements. Outside, you get the everyday luxury of a private backyard, fully fenced for privacy. But the standout feature, the kind of thing neighbors talk about, is the detached one-car garage. In this micro-pocket, that’s a legitimate unicorn. Storage, workshop, gym, gear space… or just the peace of mind of actually having a garage in Normal Heights. From the morning-light front porch moments to the backyard wind-down evenings, this home lives at a human pace. And being positioned in the heart of Normal Heights means your world is walkable… coffee, parks, restaurants, Adams Ave night energy, and the effortless centrality that makes this neighborhood one of the most coveted in San Diego. This is the rare blend — original soul, upgraded comfort, and a location that keeps proving why people try so hard to get into this zip code.
