BIRDLAND!...No it's not Alfred Hitchcock's greatest horror. It's actually the very nice CENTRALLY LOCATED community of SERRA MESA, sometimes called "Birdland" because all the streets are named after birds. It is a RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD just north of MISSION AND FASHION VALLEYS, 1 mile from the entrance to Interstate 163 that connects to other major freeways, and about a TEN-MINUTE DRIVE(traffic notwithstanding) to most MILITARY BASES, the BEACHES,SDSU, UCSD, downtown San Diego, Balboa Park, the zoo, SEA WORLD, Qualcomm Stadium, Petco Park,Old Towne, Seaport village, and the main AIRPORT. It is 20 minutes to the Tiajuana border and 30 minutes to Legoland, the Wild Animal Park, and several casinos. It is a truly WONDERFUL LOCATION!

Year Purchased: 1975
Why the Owner Chose Serra Mesa
I bought this home in 1975 because of its ideal location to just about everything and its nearby access to the freeway system.
The Unique Benefits at this 3 Bedroom House
Fabulous location and easy access to freeways. 10 minutes to beaches, downtown, naval bases, zoo, Balboa Park, etc.. Large family room and open living area. Brand new kitchen and on-site laundry facilities.
Owner's Map of Serra Mesa
Hi. I'm a retired lawyer. My hobbies are playing duplicate bridge and watching football! I lived in this home for over 20 years so it is near to my heart. I try to maintain it just as I did when I lived in it. It's also near to most places you'd want to visit in San Diego...including 10 minutes to the beach. The Wild Animal Park and the Tijuana border are about 20 - 30 minutes away. Naval bases are 10 - 15 minutes. It's just a mile off Interstate 163 that connects with the other freeways. Sits up on a mesa where it is often above the weather.
