Property Description
Custom Buena Creek-area Vista retreat on a fully fenced, usable 1.19-acre parcel with views, solar, irrigation well, attached garage, detached garage/shop, and a truly unique indoor/outdoor pool experience. Set among custom homes on larger lots, this split-level property offers a rare mix of privacy, flexibility, outdoor living, and everyday convenience. A gated entry leads to a drive-through/pull-through driveway with access from both ends of the property, ideal for multiple vehicles, work trucks, trailers, toys, or car enthusiasts. Inside, the main level opens to a light-filled family/living room with warm wood floors, fireplace, large windows, and an easy flow into the dining area and kitchen. The kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, generous counter space, stainless appliances, and direct access toward the expansive east-facing wraparound deck. The deck wraps around the northeast corner of the home and captures beautiful sunrise, hillside, and valley views. The flexible split-level layout includes a main-level bedroom, upper-level primary suite, additional upper-level bedroom space, and a lower level currently arranged with a fourth bedroom area plus flex/common space. The lower level opens directly to one of the home's standout features: a gas and solar-heated pool and spa with an indoor/outdoor design, creating a fun and memorable setting for year-round use, entertaining, and everyday relaxation. Outdoors, the property lives large. Enjoy usable flat space, mature landscaping and fruit trees, turf-style play/lounge areas, a covered gazebo, fire pit seating area, pool patio, rear yard access, and plenty of room for gardening, animals, storage, parking, hobbies, or future vision. In addition to the oversized attached two-car garage, the detached garage/shop provides valuable extra space for vehicles, equipment, tools, projects, or storage. No HOA and no Mello-Roos. A distinctive custom home with acreage, views, solar, well water for irrigation, and exceptional flexibility in one of Vista's most desirable semi-rural pockets.
