1Mission, the historic mixed-use residential/retail project in the heart of Mission Hills at Falcon and W. Washington streets, was honored with a Gold Nugget Award in the Mixed-Use Project category at the Pacific Coast Builders Conference (PCBC) in San Francisco Thursday.
The 6,416-square-foot office building in Mission Hills at 925 Fort Stockton Drive, San Diego 92103, has been sold for $2.55 million.
Four residential units in Mission Hills at 1763-1769 Guy St., San Diego 92110, have been sold for $825,000. The apartment consists of five bedrooms and five bathrooms.
Mission Hills is located above Old Town on the rolling hills that overlook the harbor. The area was home to many of San Diego's pioneers and many of the homes are historical. Architect Irving Gill designed many of the houses that are now lovingly preserved and renovated. There are California bungalows, craftsman homes, Spanish Revival and Mission-style homes and many other one of a kind residences.
Kate Sessions, the landscape artist for Balboa Park, started the Mission Hills Nursery over a century ago in the area and it still functions as the center of the neighborhood. Washington and Goldfinch Streets are the commercial center of the neighborhood and provide residents with shopping and services. Small cafes and specialty retail shops line the streets and offer unique goods.
