Community Spotlight on Bay Ho - the Jewel of Clairemont

By
Real Estate Agent with CENTURY 21 Award

Bay Ho ViewNestled into a hillside overlooking the San Diego Bay is the community of Bay Ho – a beautiful neighborhood within the community of Clairemont. Situated on a hillside and plateau it is never remiss of gentle ocean breezes and plenty of San Diego sunshine. As a part of Clairemont it is centrally located near the 52, 5 and 805 freeways. Located just east of Pacific Beach and south of University City, Bay Ho is a pleasant neighborhood with a good mix of families and original owners.

The west end of Bay Ho is a neighborhood comprised of approximately 600 homes built theater style into the hillside. Its claim-to-fame is its panoramic views of Mission Bay, Sea World tower and evening lights. On the Fourth of July there’s no need to go any further than your own back patio to get the best seat in town to watch an array of firework displays. Homes located in the theater-style hillside are single story, but many have been renovated for added square footage and amenities.

Further up the hill is the neighborhood known as the Palisades. Comprised of mostly two story homes built in the 1970’s, this is a tight community that prides itself on community involvement and annual block party fun.

Cadman park in Bay HoThe top of the plateau sits a neighborhood of single family homes built mostly in the late 50’s to early 60’s. Many of the outer lying homes have canyon views and good size lots. Home sizes in this area of Bay Ho average 1,000-1,500sqft, although many have see extensive renovations over the years that add square footage through added height or footprint.

Its two mile proximity to the Clairemont Square shopping center makes for quick trips to local dining, movie theater, grocery stores and shopping. Located centrally in the community is Cadman Park, home to the Hilltoppers Little Leage baseball league, dog park and sandy play area. Welcome home to Bay Ho.
