About This Home

2771 Marathon Dr
$4,500 deposit, Available Aug 15

Property Id: 2789690 Step inside this mid-century garden oasis with sweeping canyon and mountain views. The yard is packed with approximately 20 fruit trees, raised veggie beds, including a community herb box, and more passionfruit than you could reasonably eat. It is an ideal setup for the seasoned green thumb or the aspiring gardener. Newer pour-in-place pavers and pergolas in both the front and back create inviting spaces to relax, entertain, or simply admire your future harvest. The backyard winds down into a canyon that comes alive in the spring and opens to a short hiking and mountain biking trail, so nature is essentially your next-door neighbor. Exterior upgrades include a newer roof, solar with a Tesla battery, a large rainwater harvesting tank, smart irrigation, a custom security screen gate, fresh exterior paint, updated lighting, and a two-car garage. Despite its serene canyon setting, the home is incredibly central. Located in Serra Mesa, you can walk to Snapdragon Stadium and are just minutes from Mission Valley, North Park, Balboa Park, SDSU, shopping, dining, major medical centers, and easy access to the 8, 15, 805, and 163 freeways, making it easy to get almost anywhere in San Diego. Inside, the home is bright and open with vaulted ceilings and large windows. Thoughtfully updated with engineered oak flooring throughout, mini-split A/C zoned to each room, three Velux skylights that open, close, and include blinds, and a fireplace framed by built-in bookshelves. The remodeled bathrooms blend clean, modern finishes with custom alder wood, including a one-of-a-kind vanity top. Matching alder wood adds warmth and character to the living room bar top. Each room feels private while remaining connected to the outdoors, with views of the canyon or garden and regular visits from hummingbirds and butterflies, who apparently also know a good listing when they see one.

2771 Marathon Dr is a house located in San Diego County and the 92123 ZIP Code. This area is served by the San Diego Unified School District attendance zone.

Neighborhood

Located between Interstate 805 and Interstate 15, and just 10 miles from Downtown San Diego, Serra Mesa places residents close to the city's major attractions, while enjoying a more relaxed life living in the heart of the city. For entertainment, Serra Mesa is convenient to Sea World, Balboa Park (home of the iconic San Diego Zoo), and Mission Bay. The neighborhood neighbors Mission Valley, a commercial hub with several malls and restaurants. SDDCU Stadium rests just south of the neighborhood. Serra Mesa is also near three medical facilities which are one of the area’s largest employers. Along with several neighborhood parks, Serra Mesa is surrounded by natural areas including Tecolote Canyon Natural Park and Nature Center and Mission Trails Regional Park, a 7,000-plus acre park with miles of trails and a lake. Similar to other San Diego neighborhoods, rentals here are expensive, but there are many options that are significantly cheaper compared to other neighborhoods.

School data provided by GreatSchools The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
