Description

Perched on a hilltop in Vista with sweeping views of the surrounding hills, this home offers a peaceful retreat full of possibility. The home’s inviting living room features a wood-burning fireplace and a striking picture window that frames the scenery beyond, creating a warm and welcoming space to gather. Step outside to a spacious back patio where you can take in sunsets and breezes, or wander through the property’s orchard of producing fruit trees—avocado, citrus, mango, fig, pear, mulberry, banana, and more.

    "Dog owners, even on the easements, pick up after your dog. The county pocket lacks adequate street maintenance so it is up to the home owners to clean up what is left behind. And no, we don't want to smell what your dog has been cooking. Exercise your dog to your heart's content but turning a street into a dog toilet is not cool. Be kind, don't empty your dog's behind. "
