San Carlos 4BR Home on a 10,890 SF Corner Lot with Owned Solar
This distinctive San Carlos residence in The Estates offers a rare combination of scale, outdoor living, and neighborhood privacy. Sited on a large 10,890 SF corner lot on a single‑loaded street, the home provides multiple outdoor terraces and dining areas that take advantage of picturesque views toward the Mission Trails ridgeline. Owned solar lowers operating costs — a practical plus in California ownership.
Inside, the floor plan balances formal and casual space. You’re welcomed by a gracious formal living room with soaring ceilings and a skylight, directly adjacent to a formal dining room ideal for dinner parties. The spacious kitchen includes a dedicated dining nook with yard-facing sightlines. A few steps down from the main level, the family room creates a comfortable media/TV area and is appointed with a wet bar for entertaining.
The bedroom configuration is thoughtfully tiered: three bedrooms and a full bathroom are located on the primary upper level, while the primary suite sits a step above, significantly enlarged for privacy and featuring expanded views, an ample walk-in closet, and a large ensuite bathroom. The split-level layout gives separation between living zones and is highly adaptable for work-from-home or multi-generational living.
Outdoors, the generous corner parcel unlocks multiple use areas—formal alfresco dining, grilling stations, play space, and garden beds—while still providing privacy from the street. The location is an easy walk or short drive to Mission Trails Regional Park trailheads and Lake Murray recreation, plus nearby neighborhood shops and restaurants. With no HOA, this home offers flexible ownership in a stable, family-friendly San Diego neighborhood.
This property is an excellent fit for families who prioritize outdoor living, space to entertain, and access to trails and open space—book a private tour to experience the scale and views in person.

A factual market snapshot around 7937 Wing Span Dr.
San Carlos remains one of east San Diego’s most consistent suburban markets. Supply is limited for larger-lot homes, and buyers prize outdoor space and proximity to Mission Trails and Lake Murray. Median single-family prices in similar eastern San Diego pockets have been appreciating modestly; inventory tends to be thin (low months supply) and well-priced homes see meaningful buyer interest. For sellers, highlight lot size, views, and energy-saving features (owned solar). For buyers, confirm condition and parking/solar documentation and be prepared for competitive offers if the property is on-market at market value.
Single-family residential zoning typical for San Carlos. Permits one detached single-family dwelling; accessory structures subject to setback rules.
