Sorrento Valley / Calle Cristobal

[SD Realtor]

On the cul de sac we lived on it was kind of a 50/50 sense of community. Our immediate neighbors on one side very much kept to themselves but the two homes at the end of the cul de sac had two block party bbqs during the time we were there.

Good value for the money is probably the most subjective term I hear… That is because it is 100% dependent on when you buy. Is it good value right now? Well yes compared to 2004 but no compared to 2000 and not as good a value as it was 6 months ago. Is it less expensive then similar sized homes in say 4S Ranch? Yes. However what monetary value do you assign to the schools at 4S as opposed to the SD Unified.

Those of course are rhetorical questions but it is hard to answer your question.

Yes there is good access to the canyon. Depends on which canyon, (lopez to the south and pq to the north) and it is very nice to ride or walk down there.

Torrey Hills/Bluffs is very much different then here. Is it better? Well the homes are newer but are they worth the additional price including the HOA and Mello Roos? My personal answer is no I don’t think so BUT that is NOT BASED ON ANYTHING BUT MY PERSONAL taste. Would I consider Torrey Hills/Bluffs? Yes.. it is a really nice spot. Our man FLU can give you the skinny on that area.

It is a tough call. It really depends on your budget, where you work, how you feel about Mello Roos and such, yard size, and other factors. Don’t rush into anything, take your time, look at lots of different stuff. Make sure you study the comps and such. Right now we are still in the rally which hopefully will slow as we head into winter.

How successful is using the “choice” option for kids and schools? What is the criteria they use? Is it more common that you can or do they tell you that you have to go to the neighborhood school?

I live in a condo on Calle Cristobal. The 92121 side seems to keep their yards nicer. The 92126 side has some nice yards, but more people who don’t upkeep them as well (maybe because they are cheaper). I personally like Mira Mesa’s multi-ethnic aspect (lots of people from Vietnam, Philippines, India, etc.). I think the other areas being mentioned are probably less diverse.

3) Is there good access to the RP canyon? I would guess so I usually start from the trailhead

The ‘proper’ accesses are located at the east and west end of Calle Cristobal. The west end is located at the south side of Calle Cristobal at the bottom of the hill (large parking lot with a gate). The east end is supposedly at the park located at the north end of Camino Ruiz (intersection Camino Ruiz and Calle Cristobal). I have not checked the access from the park yet. It is possible to mountain bike from the west access, heading to the east – all the way to 15 and past by a bit.
