$4,750/Month | For Lease in South Mission Hills
Architectural Loft with Private Courtyard, Minutes from Downtown Without the Downtown Chaos
3 Bed | 2 Bath | 1160 SF | Reserved Parking | In-Unit Laundry | Central A/C | Pet-Friendly
Live in a home that balances standout design, rare privacy, and effortless city access. This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom industrial-style loft at The Charmer designed by award-winning architect Jonathan Segal, FAIA features soaring ceilings, premium finishes, and a fully fenced private courtyard ideal for entertaining, relaxing, or letting pets roam free. Though just moments from major roadways, the unit is quietly situated within the community, offering unexpected peace and quiet in the heart of the city.
Located in a tree-lined pocket of South Mission Hills, you're minutes from Downtown, Little Italy, and Hillcrest without the density or high-rise hassle. Mission Hills is one of San Diego's most beloved neighborhoods, known for its historic homes, independent cafes, wine bars, and local markets. Favorites like Fort Oak, Meshuggah Shack, Shakespeare Pub, and Lazy Acres are all nearby, with downtown and the airport just a short drive away.
Why It Stands Out:
-Private Outdoor Space: Fully fenced courtyard with herb + veggie garden ideal for pets, play, or hosting
-Architectural Credibility: Jonathan Segal designed, low-density community with signature industrial-modern design
-Urban Access, Without the Noise: Quick access to Little Italy, Downtown, Hillcrest, and major freeways without the congestion of downtown living
-Designed for Modern Life: 3-bedroom layout perfect for families, roommates, or hybrid/WFH lifestyles
-Comfort & Convenience: Central A/C, in-unit washer/dryer, and upgraded lighting throughout
-Two Reserved Parking Spaces (one covered)
-Pet-Friendly with management approval
Inside the Loft:
-Vaulted ceilings and oversized architectural windows
-Polished concrete floors on the main level; new wood-style flooring upstairs
-Modern kitchen with stainless appliances, full-size dishwasher, and sleek cabinetry
-Spacious main-floor primary suite with private en-suite bath
-Two upstairs bedrooms with a full second bathroom
-Fresh designer paint and custom window treatments throughout
-Professionally managed for seamless living
Neighborhood Advantage:
Located just minutes from Downtown, Little Italy, Bankers Hill, and Hillcrest, this home gives you seamless access to San Diego's best restaurants, cafes, and cultural hubs. Quick freeway access makes commuting easy, while the unit's location within the community ensures peace and quiet you're close to everything, without hearing everything.
Ideal For:
-Professionals and remote workers who want design, privacy, and proximity to city life
-Roommate pairs or couples who value layout flexibility
-Small families seeking a safe, stylish home with indoor-outdoor flow
-Dog owners looking for rare outdoor space near urban amenities
