Property Description

Historically designated Farrell & Merle Pack Speculation House offering rare MILLS ACT tax savings & carefully executed upgrades. Original hardwood floors, towered entry & ceiling detailing preserve Spanish eclectic charm. Chef's kitchen designed w/ generous storage & expansive island. Paid solar + powerwall, newer HVAC, tankless water heater & whole-home water softener + reverse osmosis. A compelling blend of architectural significance, comfort & long-term value in one of San Diego's most beloved neighborhoods. The Farrell & Merle Pack Speculation House blends timeless Spanish eclectic architecture with meaningful Mills Act tax advantages and a series of thoughtful modern upgrades that support comfortable living today. An octagonal two-story entry foyer creates a striking first impression, accented by small stepped, defensive-style windows that reflect the home's historic design and craftsmanship. Inside, original hardwood floors and classic ceiling detailing preserve the integrity of the architecture, while carefully selected improvements enhance everyday function. The kitchen is both refined and practical, featuring high end appliances, generous storage, and an expansive island designed for daily use and easy gathering. Recent infrastructure upgrades include paid-off solar (2023), a brand-new HVAC system (2023), a tankless water heater (2023), and a whole-home water softener with reverse osmosis (2023), adding efficiency, comfort, and peace of mind. The main level offers two bedrooms and a full bath, ideal for guests, work-from-home needs, or multigenerational living. The entire upper level is dedicated to a private primary suite, providing a quiet retreat with scale and separation. The spa-like primary bath features a soaking tub and dual-head shower. Custom California Closets throughout the home add thoughtful organization while maintaining a clean, cohesive aesthetic. Outdoor spaces have been intentionally planned to extend the living experience, with a patio, grass, and a dedicated outdoor kitchen. The layout is well suited for relaxed evenings and effortless entertaining, all with minimal maintenance. Set within one of San Diego's most architecturally rich and historically significant neighborhoods, this is a rare opportunity to own a preserved historic residence that has been carefully updated to live beautifully today.
