A Restored Piece of History in the Heart of University Heights. There’s something special about a Craftsman home. The way it feels. The way it tells a story before you even step inside. Welcome to 4515 Louisiana Street, a lovingly restored Craftsman tucked along a quiet street in historic University Heights. This home has a historic designation and is a contributor in the Melhorn & Son Historic District. This isn’t just a remodel. It’s a revival. With a Mills Act Agreement with the City of San Diego, this home stands to save the owners tens of thousands of dollars each year in property taxes an opportunity to steward history while enjoying meaningful financial benefit. Originally built in an era when homes were crafted with intention and character, this 2 bedroom 2 bath residence has been thoughtfully brought back to life, honoring its architectural roots while carefully integrating modern comforts. Every detail was approached with respect for the home’s history, preserving its timeless charm while restoring it for generations to come. Beyond its classic exterior lies a warm, inviting interior space -- where natural light fills the rooms and the spirit of early San Diego craftsmanship lives on. Among the extensive upgrades are brand new windows, appliances, HVAC system, roof, plumbing, and more. A fully permitted additional bathroom expands the original one-bathroom layout to a two-bathroom design that results in efficient space utilization and greater convenience, ensuring that the home’s next chapter is as strong as its foundation.
