There’s a well-known saying in real estate: location, location, location — and this home truly delivers. Ideally situated west of I-5 in the highly sought-after Encinitas Highlands neighborhood, this charming single-level home offers 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and sits on an elevated nearly ¼-acre lot. Recent improvements include interior and exterior paint, new fencing, new windows, ceiling and underfloor insulation, new interior doors and hardware, plus beautifully upgraded paver driveway and walkways. The home also features an indoor laundry area for added convenience. Filled with character and timeless appeal, the property showcases original hardwood floors, an expansive covered front porch, a private front yard, and a huge flat backyard with more than 25 mature fruit trees, native landscaping, and a new garden shed. Whether you choose to move right in and enjoy it as-is or renovate and expand the existing 1,368 square feet, or add an ADU, the possibilities are endless. Experience true coastal Encinitas living just blocks from the beach, historic Coast Highway 101’s trendy shops and restaurants, renowned North County surf spots, the Coaster station, Scripps Memorial Hospital, and the Coastal Rail Trail. Encinitas is also known for its award-winning school district, abundant shopping and dining options, and convenient access to Interstate 5.
