About 4188 Balboa Way
AVAILABLE NOW! For complete lease terms and how to apply, please go to our website. 3D TOUR: https www zillow com view-imx 1744436a-54ee-451e-bdd8-46e5317cd20d?initialViewType=pano&hidePhotos=true&setAttribution=mls&wl=true&utm_source=email&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=emo-floorplancompleted This 3BD/2BA, 1,766 sq. ft. tri-level home in Clairemont spreads across three levels connected by short flights of stairs, giving every household member their own sense of place. The carpeted living room at entry level sits apart from the rest of the home, a natural spot to settle in at the end of the day. A few steps down, the family room and kitchen sit on a sunken lower level crowned by soaring vaulted ceilings finished in warm wood beams and tongue-and-groove planking, with windows set at patio level that draw in natural light, tile flooring, and a ceiling fan overhead. The fully equipped kitchen features tile countertops, white raised-panel cabinetry, and a peninsula that keeps the cook connected to the family room, while the dining area opens through a sliding glass door to the back patio. Finished in brick pavers and fully enclosed by fencing, the patio is a private setting for meals outdoors or an easy evening under the open sky, and two covered parking spaces sit directly behind it. Down the hallway on the lower level, a full bathroom has direct access from the adjacent bedroom, a private setup that works well for an additional occupant or a home office, and in-unit laundry is tucked nearby. A short flight of stairs up from the foyer leads to the top level, where two carpeted bedrooms share a jack-and-jill bathroom, with the primary bedroom adding a walk-in closet and its own private vanity. Clairemont puts Mission Bay, the shops and restaurants along Balboa Avenue, and quick access to the 5 and the 805 just minutes away, with nearby hospitals and San Diego International Airport an easy drive for work commutes and travel days. Tecolote Canyon Natural Park is close by for a day on the trails. Dramatic ceilings, a patio all your own, and Mission Bay around the corner, this Clairemont home is ready for its next chapter!
