Point Loma Real Estate
The Point Loma
peninsula is home to 63,000 residents who enjoy its location near the heart of
the city and its spectacular skyline and ocean views. The Navy is one of the
largest landholders on the Point. Fort Rosecrans Military Reservation and National Cemetery run almost the length of the Peninsula.
In the 90s, the
Navy announced plans to close the Naval Training Center that occupied prime
bayside land on the peninsula. The City of San Diego took possession of the
land in 2000 and immediately began creating a new urban village for San Diego
called Liberty Station. Liberty Station is a mixed-use project that will
include homes, offices, shopping, cultural and arts facilities, a boat channel
and hotels. The project is well underway with the first residents moving in
during 2003. The Corky McMillan Company was chosen as the master developer of
Liberty Station which will include three distinct neighborhoods, totaling 349
residences. Admiralty Row will include 80 single-family detached homes, Beacon
Point will comprise 129 detached row homes, and Anchor Cove will include 140
town homes. Paying tribute to the rich architectural history in the Loma Portal
area, the detached neighborhoods of Admiralty Row and Beacon Point will boast an
eclectic mix of Spanish, Mediterranean and Italian designs - the roots of San
Diego's oldest architecture. Mimicking the streets of Coronado, garages will be
accessed off alleys in these two neighborhoods and sidewalks will be cut in
two-foot squares. Anchor Cove will showcase Mission Revival architecture
reminiscent of early California mission buildings.
Neighborhoods on
the peninsula include Loma Portal, Midway District, Ocean Beach, Point Loma
Heights, Centraloma, Roseville, Fleetridge, Sunset Cliffs, College Area, Woods, Wooded Acres
and La Playa. Point Loma’s housing varies from condominiums and townhomes in the aforementioned Liberty Station, as well as Village Green
and La
Playa. The Roseville subdivision, Loma Portal, and Point Loma Heights include
single-family detached homes ranging in price up the millions for large custom
homes with skyline, beach and bay views.
Point Loma
Nazarine University is another fixture on Point Loma with a beautiful campus
overlooking the Pacific. The campus includes several historical buildings
including the Greek Amphitheatre, the first facility of its type built in the
United States.
