Property Description
Welcome to 5091 El Arbol, a rare opportunity in Terramar, one of Carlsbad's most sought after beachside neighborhoods. Just two blocks from the sand with private beach access, this beautifully remodeled single level home offers the perfect blend of coastal charm, modern finishes, and even further future potential. Completely renovated from top to bottom, the home has been thoughtfully transformed with exceptional attention to detail. Major improvements include new plumbing, electrical, windows, doors, appliances, driveway, landscaping, and a premium standing seam metal roof designed for both beauty and longevity. Every space has been reimagined to create a move in ready coastal retreat. Inside, multiple living spaces flow seamlessly to a private backyard designed for year round enjoyment.

The property also features an EV charging outlet in the garage and exceptional parking options, including space for RV, boat, or trailer parking. With room for 8+ vehicles across the driveway and exterior parking areas, this is a rare convenience in a beachside location. The combination of a large usable lot, resort style pool, detached guest suite, separate office, and single level layout makes this one of the most unique offerings in Terramar. With an unbeatable location near the beach and extensive upgrades throughout, 5091 El Arbol is a special property that offers an incredible lifestyle today and exciting possibilities for the future.
