Description

Set just minutes from the beach, this exceptional former model residence is the largest home within an exclusive eight-home enclave, offering a rare fusion of refined coastal luxury, sophisticated design, and modern upgrades. Thoughtfully remodeled and impeccably maintained, the home showcases a striking chef’s kitchen featuring new quartz countertops, a dramatic double island with bar seating, custom designer backsplash, and curated barn-wood accents. Elegant barn doors, rich hardwood flooring throughout, and the complete removal of carpet further elevate the interior, creating a seamless and timeless aesthetic. The expansive floor plan offers four generously sized bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bath, including a desirable main-level bedroom and full bathroom. Upstairs, a spacious bonus room provides versatile living or entertaining space and flows effortlessly into the private primary retreat. The primary suite features a tranquil balcony with ocean views—an ideal setting for enjoying coastal sunsets and ocean breezes. Additional enhancements include a new central air conditioning system, fully owned solar, a tankless water heater with filtration system, and an automated outdoor sprinkler system. Both the front and backyard have been professionally landscaped with drought-conscious design elements, including turf, pavers, and a decomposed granite fire-pit area perfect for entertaining. A freshly painted exterior adds to the home’s standout curb appeal, while the 2.5-car tandem garage offers ample storage and convenience. Located within top school district San Dieguito Union and walking distance to San Dieguito Academy. Ideally situated with excellent walkability to local award-winning schools, Encinitas Community Park, and the boutiques and dining of Cardiff, this residence delivers elevated coastal living just moments from the ocean.

    "Great area and great schools. Some great parks and close to the beach. Great for being outside but the hills and lack of sidewalks in areas makes it less walkable than other areas. Package theft does happen and people don’t clean up after their pets well. The rent is also really high around here. "
