Welcome to your private escape in Mission Hills — a gorgeous 4,200 sq ft Mediterranean villa tucked quietly along Spruce Canyon, yet only 1.5 miles from Downtown San Diego. This spacious 6‑bedroom estate features custom ironwork, multiple balconies, and serene canyon views that make you feel like you're a world away.
Built in 2005 and renovated by renown San Diego designer Karin Gross in 2026, step into the stunning designer kitchen and family room, the modern, elegant heart of the home — perfect for gathering, cooking, and relaxing together.
A dramatic staircase leads to the elegant primary suite, complete with downtown views and a luxurious step in XL shower. All bedrooms feature plush foam‑topper mattresses with 3 of them being "Purple Beds" for heavenly comfort and a peaceful night's sleep. We offer a total of 4 King beds, 4 Queen beds, and one double sofa bed, comfortably sleeping up to 10 guests.
We welcome quiet, respectful groups and do require host approval for any guest count over 10, with an added per‑person, per‑day fee for additional guests. To ensure the privacy and tranquility of our canyon neighborhood, we strictly prohibit events or parties. For safety and compliance, we have two exterior-only security cameras:
Front-facing camera monitoring the entry and street activity. Side‑facing backyard camera (not directed into the home).
If you’re looking for a venue to host a party or loud gathering, this is not the right home. But if you’re seeking luxury, serenity, nature, and a stunning retreat close to everything, you’ve found the perfect place.
