    Description

    Welcome to 1691 Crest Drive, a rare and remarkable opportunity to create your dream home on one of Encinitas' most coveted streets. This expansive 1.27-acre property offers a blank canvas of flat, fully usable land, perfect for bringing your vision to life. Zoned RR (Rural Residential 1), the lot provides incredible flexibility for a variety of uses, from a sprawling family estate to a serene retreat that captures the essence of coastal living. The property includes conceptual plans for a thoughtfully designed 3,341 square-foot main residence, complete with an attached 1,000 square-foot garage for ample storage and parking. Additionally, the plans feature a 1,028 square-foot detached ADU, ideal for hosting guests, accommodating extended family, or generating rental income. For those seeking a dedicated workspace or creative haven, the plans also outline a detached 315 square-foot office that can serve as a private sanctuary away from the main residence. While these plans offer a strong foundation for your imagination, they are not yet approved, allowing you the freedom to make adjustments to suit your specific needs and preferences. Buyers are encouraged to verify all details and development possibilities with the City of Encinitas to fully explore the potential of this exceptional property. With its unparalleled location and abundant possibilities, 1691 Crest Drive represents more than just land—it’s an opportunity to build the home and lifestyle of your dreams in the heart of Encinitas.
    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources. This description is from July 03, 2025

      "The neighborhood is a mix of retired people and new families. It’s not as communal as other cities I’ve lived in with many people driving in and out of the community and then staying inside or in their backyard. The gates parks prohibit kids meeting there unless they belong to an association. It’s odd to see a gated park that children cannot play on , meet new kids that live across the street, etc. I’m used to larger cities where there are more public places to gather, meet your neighbors, and create a stronger community."

      "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. "
