Kennebeck Ct. Beach House W/ Opt. Guest Apartment

Year Purchased: 2003

Why the Owner Chose Mission Beach

We rented this house for nine summer vacations, starting when our twins were only one. We love this house and always called it "our beach house" even before we owned it. My husband compared every other beach house to this one. One summer we were renting the house across the court, and when we arrived "our beach house" was For Sale ! We looked at every other house for sale on Mission Beach to make sure we weren't missing anything, and then we bought it. It is a dream come true to own this house and we are very thankful for all the fun times it has provided us, with friends and especially our family. We look forward to spending many happy years with our children and eventually their children in this special place.

The Unique Benefits at this House

Our house is amazing. There are three levels so there's plenty of space for everyone & lots of outdoor spaces. We are only the third house from the water- close enough that you don't even mind running back to make lunch or use the bathroom. The sound of the ocean and the views are great. Kennebeck is a great court and because we are six blocks north of the roller coaster, our section of the beach is less crowded than many others. But we're still close enough to walk or bike to everything on Mission and Pacific Beach.

A
Belmont Park

Ride the Giant Dipper or the Merry Go Round. Lots of family things to do. Lots of restaurants, too.

B
Sea World

Sea World is just a few minutes drive from our beach house.

C
Antiquing in Ocean Beach

Ladies day out! Had too much sun? go antiquing and have lunch in Ocean Beach on Newport Avenue. Short drive away.

 

Owner's Map of Mission Beach

We have been married for 26 years. We have three sons in college. Our oldest son is 23, and our twins are almost 21. We live in Phoenix, Arizona and go to San Diego as often as we can. We love all the San Diego has to offer and never get tired of acting like tourists.

    • What a peaceful,relaxing weekend. One can catch the ocean breeze as you relax on the private roof deck. It's a quiet retreat with a view beyond words. Bring your bikes and rollerblades. This is a home away from home. We call it 'Casa de la memorias'- House of memories! We'll be back.

    • Ken and I stayed for a weekend in September and found the location perfect. The environment is certainly conducive to relaxation and we enjoyed every minute we spent at your house and in the San Diego area. We're looking forward to more opportunities to go back!
