Description

Located on a quiet cul-de-sac street in one of South Carlsbad’s most desirable La Costa neighborhoods, this is a rare opportunity to secure space, privacy, and long-term upside in a location known for lasting value. Just minutes from award-winning schools and less than four miles from the beach, the setting alone makes this a strategic purchase.A generous front yard framed by mature palms and birds of paradise creates a welcoming, resort-style entrance and a sense of seclusion that enhances curb appeal and future resale strength. Inside, vaulted ceilings and expansive Milgard Tuscany-style windows fill the home with natural light, highlighting a floor plan with timeless architecture and excellent bones. Fresh interior paint and durable ceramic tile throughout the main level make it move-in ready today while offering a clean canvas for thoughtful updates over time.The formal living and dining areas provide scale and flexibility rarely found at this price point in La Costa. The remodeled kitchen features painted cabinetry, custom Corian countertops, and stainless steel appliances, including a five-burner range and 2024 dishwasher, and opens to the family room for connected living that can easily be elevated to match your vision.The private backyard is a standout, offering a large covered patio and expansive usable space—room for a future pool, spa, outdoor kitchen, or custom retreat. In a neighborhood where lot size and privacy drive value, this flexibility represents meaningful equity potential.Upstairs, the oversized primary suite offers generous square footage, dual closets, a separate dressing area, and a spacious ensuite bath—an ideal foundation for future enhancement. Secondary bedrooms are well proportioned, and brand-new carpeting adds comfort upstairs.With exterior paint completed in 2024, a three-car garage, newer furnace and water heater, no HOA, and a premier cul-de-sac location, the fundamentals are firmly in place. The opportunity lies in enhancing at your own pace while benefiting from the strength of the surrounding neighborhood.Located within the highly regarded San Dieguito Union School District and near El Camino Creek Elementary, with easy access to Omni La Costa Resort & Spa, Leucadia State Beach, premier shopping, dining, and freeways, this home offers what savvy buyers understand: secure the location first, personalize over time, and build equity along the way.
