On a rare occasion ~ a 3 BR, 2 bath single-story home ON acreage becomes available in Vista ~ South of the 78. This 1,272 SqFt home was renovated in 2019 and is now ready to become "Home Sweet Home" to its next owners. 2019 renovations include: completely upgraded kitchen, LVP flooring in main living areas, renovated bathroom, new AC, new dual paned windows and the addition of a bedroom and bath! Tucked onto the front portion of a half-acre lot, this mid-century home has a charming front yard and offers the perfect place to rejuvenate at the end of a long day! The possibilities for multi-generational living with this property are endless. An ADU? A tiny house? A pool? Bring your RV, your speed boat, your oversized work truck - it will all find a space on this well apportioned lot! As we speak ~ this lovely home is one of very few in the 92081 area of Vista, priced under 875k and couple with acreage! BONUS: San Marcos schools (Joli Ann Liechtag Elementary is less than a .25 mile away!)
