Property Description
Just three miles from the shimmering Carlsbad coastline, tucked into the beloved La Costa community, sits a home that feels like it's been waiting for you. Built in 1978, this home is rich with character. This single level Spanish retreat offers the warmth, charm, and timeless architecture that modern homes try to imitate but rarely achieve. Step through the private stucco walled entry and you're welcomed into a world that feels both intimate and expansive - a courtyard centered haven where sunlight dances across red Spanish tile floors, arched doorways whisper stories of old world craftsmanship, and every space invites you to slow down and breathe. Your buyer will love how the home wraps around its centrally located courtyard creating a sense of privacy and serenity rarely found so close to the beach. Morning coffee in the front courtyard feels like a quiet escape; evenings in the back courtyard feels like a celebration of Southern California's golden light. There are two separate living areas that provide flexibility for both casual living and formal entertaining. Charming, spacious, private, this home lives like a private retreat in an upscale beach community.
Property Highlights: Single level, beautiful Arched doorways, large step-down great room, red Spanish tile floors throughout, huge luxury jacuzzi tub in primary suite, generous sized bedroom sand large closets, two exterior storage closets, front and rear private courtyard.
