This single-level home also has the potential for a second-level Ocean View. Enjoy salt air breezes, a color-filled sky and outdoor living areas positioned around decks, patios and gardens within the property’s Pool size lot of nearly 10,000 sf. A serene and generously sized front courtyard, designed by Sand and Soleil, showcases elegant and drought-resistant plants which reveal an effortless connection to nature. The enclosed courtyard also features multiple, yet subtly delineated areas for lounging, including the extra-large wood-beam anchored hammock. This updated single-story has new interior & exterior paint, new bathrooms, and recently resurfaced Duchâteau engineered White Oak floors. The family room welcomes you with an open floor plan, large windows and an abundance of natural light accentuating the crisp, clean space and wood-burning fireplace. The spacious kitchen has ample cabinets and offers professional-grade appliances. Newly resurfaced wrap-around butcher-block counters are complemented by peninsula-bar seating where you can savor your breakfast or gather for conversation as your favorite culinary delights are prepared. The pendant-lit dining room flows seamlessly out to the spacious 400 sf. backyard deck where you can capture views of leafy trees, and blue skies. The sprawling lawn and inviting outdoor seating spaces will serve as the backdrop for endless summer fun with friends and family. The grounds are framed with freshly-trimmed and lush green accent hedges which help define the space. The indoor-outdoor living design allows for plenty of space for an ADU or expansion with additional square footage. Solar-powered lights further enhance the property by adding an enchanting and upscale visual effect in the evening. Take advantage of the longer than average driveway and extra parking potential of the area adjacent to the driveway. You'll appreciate the Wall-Mounted Electric Vehicle Charging Station and supplemental parking areas for your guests at the front of the property.

Immediate proximity to world-renowned Beaches like Moonlight & Swamis, popular Restaurants, Shopping, Entertainment, Nightlife, the Coaster Station, dog-friendly Viewpoint Park, Encinitas Library, Farmer's Market, Schools & easy freeway access.
