San Diego Area, California Top 5 Home Sales: $4.3 Million La Mesa Estate Leads a Week of View Homes From Coronado Cays to La Jolla

Hillside homes with long views, a waterfront home in the Coronado Cays and a garden estate in the middle of the city made up the week's top sales.

San Diego Area, California Top 5 Home Sales: $4.3 Million La Mesa Estate Leads a Week of View Homes From Coronado Cays to La Jolla

The five highest-priced home sales reported in San Diego Area, California for the week ending November 1, 2026 totaled $19.025 million. Two of them were in the city of San Diego, in Normal Heights and Point Loma, and the other three were in La Mesa, Coronado and La Jolla.

All five are single-family homes, and they span half a century of building, from a home finished in 1925 to one completed in 1976. In one of the five sales, the same agent was on both sides.

No. 1 — $4,300,000 · 10310-12 Fuerte Dr, La Mesa, California

Top home sale No. 1 in San Diego Area, California — 10310-12 Fuerte Dr, La Mesa, California, week ending November 1, 2026

The week’s top sale was an estate on Mount Helix in La Mesa, which sold for $4,300,000. The property covers 1.74 acres on a corner lot and is made up of two parcels, 10310 Fuerte Drive and 10308 Bonnie Lane, that were sold together. From the grounds, the views take in the city lights, the valley and the surrounding mountains. The property last sold for $1.65 million in 2012.

The main home, built in 1960, is a single-story residence of 4,520 square feet, the largest living area in this week’s group. It has four bedrooms, five full bathrooms and a half bath, a chef’s kitchen and a bar. There are fireplaces in the primary bedroom and the family room. A separate guest house of 950 square feet has two bedrooms and one bathroom of its own.

The landscaped grounds have a saltwater pool and a barbecue. The estate also has a private tennis court, a basketball court and a sauna. Two gated entrances lead in, the landscaping draws on a private well, and the property has 51 owned solar panels.

Athir Markos of Coldwell Banker West was the listing agent and also represented the buyer, so the same agent was on both sides of the week’s highest-priced sale.

No. 2 — $4,100,000 · 6 Green Turtle Rd, Coronado, California

Top home sale No. 2 in San Diego Area, California — 6 Green Turtle Rd, Coronado, California, week ending November 1, 2026

The home at 6 Green Turtle Road in the Coronado Cays comes with its own T-head dock, built for boats up to 55 feet, on a navigable canal with a direct route into the bay and on to the open Pacific. It sold for $4,100,000, furnished. The property last sold for $2.225 million in 2006.

Built in 1976, the newest of the five, the home pairs Mediterranean architecture with Santa Fe influences inside. A front courtyard with a fountain leads to an entry tower with ceilings of about 30 feet and exposed wood beams. Saltillo tile, wood floors and handmade tilework run through the interiors, and an elevator connects the three levels, which together have 3,300 square feet, four bedrooms and five bathrooms. French doors open from the living and dining areas to outdoor spaces with fire and water features.

On the second level, a mezzanine loft looks down over the foyer. The primary suite has beamed ceilings, a fireplace and French doors to a terrace on the water, and its bath has a soaking tub and a separate shower. Two of the other bedrooms open through French doors onto Juliet balconies, and the home also has a private sauna. Up on the roof are a spa, an outdoor kitchen and panoramic views, and from the property the outlook includes the canal, the marina, the back bay and the city lights.

The home sits on a cul-de-sac in the northern part of the Cays, a waterfront community patrolled by guards around the clock. The yacht club, parks, golf and Silver Strand Beach are close by, as are the shops and restaurants of Coronado Village. There is a two-car garage.

Cromwell Gardens, at 3452 Cromwell Place in Normal Heights, covers six acres on two parcels, the largest piece of land among the week’s top sales.

At the center is a home in the Tudor and French Normandy style, built in 1925 and the oldest of the five. It has vaulted ceilings, wood floors and an arched picture window that looks out on the garden, along with a fireplace in the living room.
