Welcome to 3550 Ruffin Road Unit 182, a thoughtfully updated 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath condo in the Sunburst community of Serra Mesa. Offering 842 sq. ft. , this bright two-level residence combines a clean modern interior with one of San Diego’s most convenient central locations. The main level features wide-plank flooring, fresh paint, recessed lighting, an open living area, a dining area, and a crisp white kitchen with new cabinets, sink, counters, tile, refrigerator, dishwasher, and microwave, plus a stove that is only a few years old. A newly added peninsula/breakfast bar creates a natural gathering point, while the first-floor half bath and oversized storage closet add everyday convenience and functionality. A private fenced patio extends the living space outdoors and offers a comfortable enclosed area for pets, morning coffee, or everyday relaxation. Upstairs, two well-sized bedrooms feature new ceiling lights and separation from the main living space. Comfort is enhanced by a three-zone mini-split heating and A/C system, with one unit serving the main level and individual units in each bedroom for personalized temperature control. The bathrooms have been refreshed with new cabinets and fixtures, including a new tub and shower. Enjoy assigned parking, community pool and spa access and a highly connected Serra Mesa location close to Mission Valley, Kearny Mesa, shopping, dining, parks, and major freeway corridors.

RM-3-7
SERRA MESA
Residential-Multiple Unit Zone
The purpose of the RM zones is to provide for multiple dwelling unit development at varying densities. The RM zones individually accommodate developments with similar densities and characteristics. Each of the RM zones is intended to establish development criteria that consolidates common development regulations, accommodates specific dwelling types, and responds to locational issues regarding adjacent land uses.
