Step into San Diego's past with Barton Manor, an elegant English Tudor Revival home designed by Ralph E. Hurlburt and built by Charles H. Tifal in 1925. Located in the desirable North Mission Hills neighborhood, this historic property has maintained its classic charm with only 3 families as past residents. The exterior features steep pitched roofs, original leaded glass windows, and a distinctive dome-shaped window with a Saint George crest. Faux stone details and ornate brick chimneys enhance its historical allure, complemented by the fragrant wisteria enveloping the property. Inside, the original Batchelder tiled foyer leads to a series of formal rooms adorned with textured plasterwork and wood molding. The house includes 5 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and a versatile 990 square foot attic, ideal for personalization. Preserved details like original light fixtures, built-ins, and a vintage stove contribute to its unique character, centered around a Batchelder tiled hearth. Modern updates include a new roof & fiberglass shingles, integrating historic elegance with contemporary comforts. Two private patios offer additional outdoor living space. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of San Diego's architectural heritage. Barton Manor is a testament to enduring craftsmanship & style & maybe eligible for Mills Act. The grand attic space, with its own potential, is just one of the many highlights. The spacious 2 car attached garage adds additional storage space. Near perfect location is close to freeways, downtown, parks, hiking trails and the airport.
