4408 Brighton Ave

Welcome to this rare Ocean Beach gem—a 1927 Tudor/Normandy-style home that has only had three owners in nearly a century. Lovingly updated throughout, the home features high-end finishes, custom designer details, LVP flooring, picture windows, and full smart-home wiring. The property has been approved for the coveted Quieter Home Program and is set to receive brand-new windows and central A/C at no cost next summer. Best of all, it qualifies for the Mills Act, offering substantial property tax savings for historic homes. Situated on a double lot totaling 12,000 sqft., the grounds are a true retreat. The fully fenced backyard is designed for peace of mind with kids and pets, and includes pet-friendly turf, decomposed granite, 30 flourishing rose bushes, three mature olive trees, cypress hedges for privacy, and a nearly 60-foot honeysuckle vine that creates a lush garden atmosphere. A detached two-car garage with an EV fast charger and two additional driveway spaces provide excellent parking. Owned solar adds efficiency and long-term savings. Future expansion potential is unmatched, with stamped plans to convert the attic into a 915 sq. ft. primary suite and approved plans for an ADU in the backyard. This one-of-a-kind property blends timeless architectural character with thoughtful modern upgrades, all on a rare oversized lot in one of San Diego’s most desirable coastal neighborhoods.
