Description

Recently repositioned and now priced to move, 6801–6803 El Fuerte offers two fully renovated Spanish homes with ocean views — plus projected rental income of approximately $7,000/month for the 3-bedroom residence and $5,500/month for the 2-bedroom home. This rare dual-residence property is ideal for multi-generational living, an owner-occupant seeking rental offset, or a 1031 exchange buyer looking for a turnkey coastal asset in Carlsbad. The larger home (6803) features 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and 2,811 sq ft, including a convenient entry-level bedroom and bath. A dramatic two-story foyer, Spanish banister detail, wood-beamed ceilings, warm finishes, and ocean views from multiple rooms create standout character throughout. The second residence (6801) offers 2 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and 1,441 sq ft, highlighted by vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, skylights, ensuite bedrooms, and a beautifully designed laundry/mud room. Both homes enjoy private yards, and parking is abundant with a 3-car garage for 6803 and a 2-car garage for 6801, plus spacious driveways. Live in one and significantly offset your monthly payment, keep extended family close while maintaining privacy, or lease both in one of North County’s strongest rental markets. Opportunities like this are rare in Carlsbad.
